From what I got from the article the republican governors were for the stimulus not because they actually agreed with it but because their states need the money because of budget shortfalls.

I also don't agree with surgery to take out my appendicitis, but I sure need it to save my life.
There is no down side for GOP governors. They are not accountable if the feds want to send them extra money. Of course they want the stimulus package to pass; its free money. They have their dirty hands out because they don't want to have to actually govern and cut their own states bloated, mismanaged budgets. Governors can't run back to their free Washington, D.C. area homes and hide from their constituents like Congress does.
