For Republicans, the past 8 years' PoPD is just payback for Robert
Bork, a highly intelligent jurist whose reactionary viewpoints made
him totally unacceptable (to Democrats, at least) as a Supreme Court
Justice.  Objecting to Bork because of his extremist legal views, and
grilling him on those views, justify in the minds of many Republicans
a personal hatred of and a scorched-earth policy toward all Democrats.
