No, the tea party as a group lines up with Texas on immigration, guns, taxes, gays, science, religion, etc etc. Country Club Republicans stay in the enclaves.
I still can't figure out why you think 'lives in Texas' means something other than 'Texan', other than successful left-wing advertising and right-wing propaganda. Texas is pretty much a microcosm of the US with an independent streak and a strong geographical affinity.
