Congressman Miller calls on Greer to resign

Rep. Jeff Miller is calling on RPOF chairman Jim Greer to step down -- a day after Gov. Charlie Crist defended the party chief, saying he's "done a great job.

Said Miller in a statement e-mailed to reporters: "Jim Greer has shown on numerous occasions that he is incapable of running the Republican party of Florida (RPOF) and refuses to remain neutral in contested primaries. Mr. Greer has failed at managing the financial, political, and public relations aspects of the state party."

"The latest scandal involving a RPOF operative and the use of a fake Twitter account to disparage a duly elected county Chairman is just another in a long list of management failures," the Panhandle Republican said. "Further, Greer has shown a bias in the primary of the United States Senate Seat in publically supporting Governor Crist and has repeatedly ignored calls from county party organizations for neutrality. This behavior is inexcusable and Florida Republicans deserve better. 

"At a time when Republicans across the country are energizing and unifying to defeat the Democrats in 2010, Greer is dividing and deflating Republicans in Florida. I call on Mr. Greer to resign as Chairman of the RPOF."
