Frank built his entire thesis by assuming that he knew what people should hold as valuable, and then showing that they are irrational in their voting patterns because their votes don't actually give them what they hold as valuable.
His mistake was his underlying assumptions. He just seems incapable of believing that people's moral and philosophical beliefs could be a source of value higher than economic self-interest.
