(CNN) -- As Sharron Angle celebrated her win in Nevada's Republican Senate primary, she praised the Tea Party activists who backed her campaign and vowed to return the country to its constitutional principles.
Angle, a former Nevada Assembly member criticized as being too far from the mainstream to win, soared to the front of the crowded field of more than a dozen GOP candidates. She'll face Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in the general election.
The Tea Party Express, which endorsed her campaign, declared Angle's win "a huge victory for the Tea Parties."
But so far this election season, the message for Tea Party activists has been "you win some, you lose some."
November true test for Tea Party success
