ELI5: How does rubber ground out electricity?

What is it about rubber of all materials that "neutralizes" electricity? Does it actually neutralize the electricity or does something else happen? Is there any other material that acts in the same manner?

It doesn't ground it.  Rubber is an insulator.  

Electricity will always travel "the path of least resistance."  Rubber has a very high resistance, so electricity will go somewhere else to find ground.
