Although Abraham Lincoln won two elections and had many supporters, in general the press and his political opponents were always critical of Lincoln. At various times, Northern, Southern, and foreign newspapers were constantly critical of Lincoln and in very personal ways. Openly racist articles and Cartoons were always published and found an audience among people who held opposing political views but also agreed about Lincoln. From the Radical Republicans to the War Democrats, Lincoln had to bear critical articles. And, Republicans like Edwin Stanton referred to Lincoln, before the 1860 elections as a "giraffe". Sadly, only his assassination brought many of his ardent critics to regret the way they had treated him.
