Just picking someone who isn't the status quo isn't a political platform IMHO....
ever think that maybe your definition of "right wing" and "non-right wing" might be different than that of most tea party goers? seems to me they've been consistent supporting the candidates that most closely match up to those principles listed earlier particularly versus the alternatives...just picking someone with a dubious record who you know will be status quo that you think will surely win and get you committee chairmanships shouldn't be a political platform either ...maybe they should occasionally support a "left-wing" candidate just to be fair and placate the media and others
