I hear Van Tran and Tom McClintock are the only california politicians endorsed by the Tea Party
It's a tough call because there really isn't a "THE" Tea Party. And that's the way I hope it remains. But yes, the Tea Party Patriots which had it's start in Nevada County, CA in McClintock's district are solid supporters of him. He was also one of only two elected officials allowed to speak at the two massive Tea Party rallies held in Sacramento last year. And I wouldn't be surprised if Tran, a former Dana Rohrabacher staffer and YAF activist met the approval of the Tea Party people in Orange County.
