I was amazed to find that Republicans ran moderate/liberal candidates who were pro New Deal throughout the FDR era. Wilkie, the Republican candidate in 1940, had been been a Democrat till a couple years before and had been a delegate to the Democratic national convention in 1932.

Republicans didn't run against the New Deal till the Congressional elections of 1946 - after FDR was dead and the war was over. The slogan they used nationwide was "Had enough of the alphabet yet?" A reference to the New Deal numerous three letter programs.
