Tallahassee Democrat: Florida Republican Party Chairman Jim Greer told cheering GOP supporters this morning that the presidential race will be decided by a close, tough campaign for Florida's 27 electoral votes. Despite slumping poll numbers, Greer expressed continued confidence that Sen. John McCain will carry the state and win the White House. Greer spoke at a rally prior to vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin's appearance at the Jacksonville landing. He also warned Republicans to be wary of media "spin" on the McCain-Palin message. "I am confident as your chairman that when the media obstructs the message of less taxes and less government and more freedom, when they try to spin our words, when they try to mischaracterize what they have to say, you as Floridians will get the message right," said Greer. "You will tell your neighbors, you will tell your friends, you will tell your family."
