RICHMOND, Va—The leader of Virginia’s Tea Party organization has officially declared her candidacy for U.S. Senate.
Tea Party Patriots Federation chairwoman Jamie Radtke has filed papers to run for the Senate as a Republican in 2012. Radtke said she was prompted to join the race due to concerns about the ballooning national debt. Former senator George Allen, also a Republican, is expected to announce plans that he will also run for the seat held by Democrat Jim Webb, who has not said whether he’ll seek reelection.

.....Radtke said she was prompted to join the race due to concerns about the ballooning national debt....
More likely she is afflicted with being on TV and in the papers. She likes it
How did this person become Chairman? Was there a vote? If so, who voted? Was it an appointment? If so, who did the appointing? Or was the position merely assumed by this individual?
Not trying to be a wise @$$, but I do not take kindly to "leaders" who just appear.... with no bona fides......like Zer0.
