White House determines who runs?

I just read on foxnews.com that the Republican Party is discouraging Congresswoman Katherine Harris from running for the US Senate in Florida. For those of you who dont remember she was the Secretary of State for Florida in the 2000 presidential election. In fact they are shopping for a candidate to run against her in the republican primary. It was also rumered that the WH was monitoring the election for the State Chair for the RPM. I really find it discouraging that the Republican Party is turning away qualified candidates to run for public office. Let the delegates determine who they want in office. I thought that the party believed in the principle of federalism ie local control.
