Only two weeks have gone by since the midterm elections, but one coalition of Tea Party activists is already taking steps to recruit “credible” candidates for office in 2012.

During a press conference in Washington D.C. at the National Press Club, 12 leaders of local Tea Party groups joined the group American Majority in announcing the “New Leader Project,” which will focus on recruiting and training candidates for office at the state and local level. This project will not be involved in getting behind candidates in the 2012 presidential election.

“New leaders must be found, starting now, who have the ability to effectively communicate the ideas of free enterprise, limited government, fiscal responsibility and individual freedom while at the same time running sound campaigns,” said Ned Ryun, a former presidential writer for former President George W. Bush who is president of American Majority.

s this effort a response to the Senate campaigns this year in Delaware and Nevada, where conservative candidates, viewed by many as unelectable, were nominated in Republican primaries? And does this mean they could support someone less conservative, but more electable? One local Tea Party activist says no.
