I believe this difference had to do with religious values and cultural differences.

The two parties definitely couldn't see eye to eye because of their cultural, as well as religious differences. This is the reason why they fought so hard to win, which made their competition a fierce one during the Gilded Age in the 1920s and 1930s.
