“This is a great day for Delaware Democrats — I can’t remember a day like today,” [John Carney] said. “This is Joe Biden’s event. I was just talking to someone in a Markell T-shirt and we were saying, ‘Isn’t this great? This changed the whole event to Joe Biden for vice president.’ ”

Invoking Godwin’s law is a good way of ignoring the substance of the argument.
It’s kind of hard to ignore the "substance" of your post when there is NO SUBSTANCE to your post. It’s nothing but ad hominem invective, equating pro-choicers with Nazis, communists and just about every unsavory figure throughout history. To quote Joe Biden, "there’s nothing there!"...
