In large part because the man himself has no easily-accessible political history to speak of and has not yet taken many hard positions. So you "attack" or criticize what you know, which are his associations.

Positions he has taken, instant withdrawal from Iraq, class warfare, childish and weak foreign policy, etc., are assailed as soon as they appear but no one seems to want to defend or explain those for him very much. Certainly he doesn't do it himself.

So your analysis is incomplete and insufficient.
