I take it none of you are familiar with Reductio ad Hitlerum so I'll spell it out for you. In a political argument (one that doesn't concern Nazi Germany of WWII specifically), the more losing party tries and fails to make a comeback, the probability of them using a comparison to Hitler becomes closer to 1. Since a comparison to Hitler is an association fallacy, the first person to call or compare the other to Hitler/Nazi Germany automatically loses the argument. See also: Godwin's Law.
But just for shits and giggles, humor us with your analysis of Obama's campaign and how it was similar to Hitler's. I don't recall Obama having a group of paramilitary thugs busting heads at GOP rallies, or Obama blaming the problems of the state on any one race in particular.
