Whig Representative Lewis Campbell of Ohio was particularly distraught by the defeat, exclaiming, "We are slayed.
The Whig Party was a political party of the United States from 1834 to 1860, formed to oppose the policies of President Andrew Jackson, a Democrat, and in particular supporting the supremacy of Congress over the Executive Branch and favoring a program of modernization and economic development.
In its early form the Whig Party was united only by opposition to the policies of President Andrew Jackson, especially his removal of the deposits from the Bank of the United States without the consent of Congress.

 Reader's Companion to American History - -WHIG PARTY
The Whig party was founded by individuals united only in their antagonism to Jackson's war on the Second Bank of the United States and his high-handed measures in waging that war and ignoring Supreme Court decisions, the Constitution, and Indian rights embodied in federal treaties.
In Congress, Whigs supported the Second Bank of the United States, a high tariff, distribution of land revenues to the states, relief legislation to mitigate the effects of the great depression that followed the financial panics of 1837 and 1839, and federal reapportionment of House seats (a "reform" likely to enlarge Whig representation in Congress).
Detailed studies of the Whig party in the states and biographies of such Whig leaders as Clay, William Seward, Daniel Webster, and Horace Greeley reveal dissimilar policies from one state to another and important differences in the character, beliefs, and actions of the leaders.

 H-Net Review: B. J. Weinstein on Nobody's Perfect: A New Whig Interpretation of History
Although Patterson is convincing when arguing that "whig" reformers often acted on principle alone, she is much less successful at illustrating the historical continuity and essential similarity of "whig" principles.
Thus Patterson hopes to demonstrate that while the principled behavior of individual "whigs" was responsible for many of the legal and political freedoms that we enjoy today, each of the individuals to whom we owe these freedoms also acted inconsistently and at times gave in to unprincipled or self-interested motivations.
Second, Patterson disputes the conventional whig view that the historical progress of liberty has unfolded at a smooth and steady rate.
