Rubio would have taken stimulus money

The battle over stimulus dollars that some Republican governors waged was primarily political posturing, since they a) weren't involved in the stimulus vote b) tended to be named as potential 2012 candidates and c) all took the money.

So it's not surprising that Marco Rubio now concedes that he would have taken the money if he had been governor -- it's just realistic.

The only problem for Rubio is that, as a practical matter, his primary argument against Crist is reduced to a hug.
