Jose Vega has announced that he will challenge my congressman Ritchie Torres.@futurebird I would categorize most of their ideas as really more extreme-right, though many of the ideas eventually got folded into standard Republican Party politics. Their MO is usually to run Democratic primary candidates, though.
They were ahead of the curve in endorsing completely whack ideas about science. The claim you hear sometimes that some recent volcanic eruption emitted more of pollutant [x] (where [x] varies--it's usually greenhouse gases today) than all of human civilization? Comes originally from one of LaRouche's crank science journals, though the claim keeps mutating. I think it was originally about ozone-destroying chemicals (but false either way).
