Germany Elections: Moving to the Far Right?

Eh, none of the Germans talking about this were saying anything in regards to that. Lots of comparisons of Nazis and Hitler to the AfD, and some being obtuse and saying "the sky is sky blue, the AfD logo is sky blue..." and being mocked for it.

Edit: Thought of this on my way in to the office. The sentence structure would be different for that wordplay. "AfD-Blau" is a descriptor of the blue, like Dunkelblau, Hellblau, or Himmelblau. Saying, essentially, drunk for AfD would be worded differently. Plus the capital B denotes it is a noun.
