Caligula's horse. Jay Nordlinger tries to account for the folly:

Why are Democrats willing to go to the mat for a Republican who has shown himself to be — what should we say? Not very impressive, at least in a confirmation hearing?

1. To make the Republican party look bad?
2.  Because he is Obama’s choice, and Obama is the One? 
3.  Because he has expressed antipathy to Israel? 
4.  Because he has advocated almost the softest possible line toward Iran and its satellites (Hezbollah,       Hamas)? 
5.  Because the conservatives are against him, and therefore the Left must be for him? 
6.  Because a Republican war hero is just the right man to preside over the gutting of the Defense Department?
