They know only one rule book: their own. That's how they would have gone about opposig a nomination, so they figure that's how everyone else goes about opposing a nomination.

Actually opposing a nomination because the nominee is unfit for the post is beyond their imagination. They couldn't even conceive of such a reason. Their reaction would be, "well, so he's unqualified. What does THAT have to do with anything?"
