Mitt Romney plans Ohio rally at company that benefited from stimulus

Romney says he's against stimulus spending, but he actually supported it in 2009 Mitt Romney winds down his campaign with an event in Ohio designed to highlight his message of business-knows-best:
On Friday, Mitt Romney will hold one of the final rallies of his 2012 presidential campaign at Screen Machine Industries, a heavy machinery manufacturer in central Ohio.
But:
The company also happens to be the recipient of nearly $220,000 in federal stimulus funds.
To be fair to Mitt Romney, this really isn't all that out-of-character, even though he has spent the entire 2012 campaign opposing the stimulus. It's not just that he supported a stimulus bill back in 2009, it's also that he picked a running mate who has requested millions of dollars in stimulus aid for businesses and organizations in his own district. In other words, Mitt Romney isn't really against the stimulus: He's just against Barack Obama.
