Chapter 11 ? The Triumphs and Travails of Jeffersonian Republic I. Federalist and Republican Mudslingers In the election of 1800, the Federalists had a host of enemies stemming from the Alien and Sedition Acts. The Federalists had been most damaged by John Adams? not declaring war against France. They had raised a bunch of taxes and built a good navy, and then had not gotten any reason to justify such spending, making them seem fraudulent as they had also swelled the public debt. John Adams became known as ?the Father of the American Navy.?
