If the infrastructure projects where needed on their own then fine. However if the cash was used for trash then I'm with you. Do you have a cite for where the money went?
I expect the list of Governors who gave back big bucks ear-marked for their state is fairly small. If you include those that took the cash and then found a better use for it, it's still a short list, and adding in Governors who waited until it was politically correct to use the money for a better use probably still lands her in a better than average demographic.

If your parents tell you they're willing to give you $1000 to get some new furniture for your place, but after a lot of people complain that your place is already fully furnished and you don't need any new furniture, should you then take that $1000 and spend it on whatever you want?
But the main point here is that one of her huge campaign slogans is "thanks but no thanks," not "thanks, I'll spend your money on something else."
If she is trying to pass herself off as a reformer, then yes. I believe she should've not taken the money.
