Answer:

The democratic party criticzized lincoln for being "too moderate on the issue of racial equality".

Step-by-step explanation:

The radical democracy party members and leaders criticized lincoln for being moderate on the issue of racial equality. Therefore, he believed he was going to win the re-election. Nevertheless, He won, but he was pursued by the party in favor of the war. A clear example of this was Jhon C. Fremont because he signaled Lincoln as moderate. So he was very supported by the radical democrats, but when he withdrew the democrats supported the leader that was in favor of continuing the war.
