Is the floor also wet under the dash? This could be a lot of things why your car is running hot. Could be a head gasket, cracked cylinder head or block, stopped or restricted radiator, water pump impeller faulty with broken vanes, stopped up heater core, cracked water jacket and or a leaking intake manifold gasket. So as I stated could be a slew of causes. You'll have to actually diagnose the cause by checking from the easiest cause to the hardest.

SOURCE: Rainwater Leak (2001 Stratus SE)

Check at the bottom of the door there is a hole(****) out side the seal that is suppose to let the water out when it rains, it is probably clogged with leaves or debris. It is hard to see. i had the same problem.

SOURCE: rear floorboard behind driver set wet after rain

do you have a sun roof, if so start there, because there are two hoses at the back corners of the roof pan that allow water to drain, if they leak, they will soak the rear floorboards, and if not that check the door jam seals.(note that if the plugs on the floor are missing that will be verry hard not to have wet carpet)........let me know?

I have a 2005 dodge status 2.7l and my whole passenger side floorboard stays soaking wet and on top of that the radiator runs hot unless I have the AC ON ...my temp gauge never passes the half mark

Well you have got problems when the vehicle is doing this, for one your thermostat is bad, number 2 sounds like your heater core has also expired, if you dont be careful and replace these items, you will eventually blow up your motor and if not crack the head, which is also bad, and another thing, do not pour water into a hot motor or a steamed radiator, this will also crack the engines head, always use the correct antifreeze good luck.

Water driver floorboard carpet

On older vehicles there may be rust in the floorpan, but likely the door weatherstripping gasket has shrunk or missing a piece, allowing water entry. Also check door alignment. Misaligned door would allow water in. Also check radiator fluid level as bad heater core will allow water and coolant to wet carpet.

The drain tube for the a/c is probably plugged. if you can find the tube where it comes out under the hood,usually on the passenger side low on the firewall. Use a piece of wire and clean it out. This should solve your problem.
