In fact, most of the pro-Rawat attacks on ex-premies are ad hominem because they don't have any better arguments.  They can't rationally join us on the issues.  Attacks on Rawat's character, however, are far from ad hominem as he did and continues to purport to be a man of great character, to say the least.  I also disagree that there isn't a lot of criticism of the message itself.  There's tons.  You just haven't read it, I guess.
