OK so a little update, I powered on the set with all but the H. V. Rectifier tube removed from the TV and the TV's current draw leveled out at about .39 Amps or 7.3 watts according to my Kill-A-Watt Meter, which is fairly low.
So I'm guessing that the transformer is actually fine yet and my problem is just a bunch of paper caps that have shorted to ground somewhere in the TV (more than likely the two .01 MFD caps on the AC line for noise supression are the ones to blame because they are soldered to ground on one side and if they've shorted, they've more than likely shorted to ground.)
