Tomorrow, during their weekly radio show, two members of the Board of the Hampton Roads Tea Party (Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Portsmouth) will announce the Board's much-anticipated endorsement. The Tea Party in SE Virginia has thousands of members and is very active. So this announcement (with plenty of hints the backing won't go to Rigell) could stir the pot in the GOP race to select a candidate to go against Dem freshman Glenn Nye. This should be a race to watch, as it's certainly drawing a lot of national attention. Hampton Roads has the nation's largest concentration of military personnel and familes.

Does anyone from HR TP have or know of any pictures from Calderon’s recent speech showing Nye standing and applauding the speech? And if it was a joint session, Warner and Webb? Good ammunition if so .....

In my reading, Rigell has plenty of money and a business (auto dealer), and was endorsed by Gov McDonnell... not a whole lot else though. And he’s advertising more than his opponents. But I’m liking Bert Mizusawa, retired Brig General,USAR, former Ranger, First in his class, West Point, and best of all, sees Obama’s bowing to other nations as a major disrespect to the nation and it’s people.

Tea Party’s going to endorse Taylor. I’d bet the farm. Bert Misusawa looks interesting on paper but you won’t find 5 people in a thousand who have the first idea who he is.
