Can't import tkinter in python using Mac OSX 10.8.3

I am using the anaconda python package, which is configured for tkinter.

I installed ActiveTcl, following https://www.python.org/download/mac/tcltk/ I am able to import other libraries fine, run ipython etc. Just not tkinter in python3 or Tkinter in python2. When I try to import tkinter I get the following message:

Python 3.3.1 |Anaconda 1.5.1 (x86_64)| (default, Apr 25 2013, 23:10:48) 
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5493)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import tkinter
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/Users/username/anaconda/envs/py3k/lib/python3.3/tkinter/__init__.py", line 40, in <module>
import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for Tk
