How does the Colorado GOP look compared to Florida?

I got this from CQ today:

The Miami Herald reports: “Republicans should have the wind at their backs this election season with President Barack Obama’s poll numbers dropping and independents turning away from Democrats. But many Florida Republicans see a significant obstacle to success: Jim Greer, the most controversial and polarizing Florida GOP chairman in decades. He has become a lightning rod for infighting, distraction and distrust, and Republican gubernatorial candidate Bill McCollum could be a casualty.” The newspaper adds: “Greer and his main benefactor, Gov. Charlie Crist, are fending off a near-mutiny among party activists, elected officials and fundraisers fed up with what they see as inept political operations, dirty campaign tactics, unfair treatment of candidates (such as U.S. Senate hopeful Marco Rubio of Miami), dubious fundraising practices and lavish spending.”

Sounds somewhat familiar.
