What was the significance of political parties in the late nineteenth century?

Political parties within the 19th century thought of themselves as armies—as disciplined, hierarchical fighting organizations whose mission it had been to defeat a clearly identified opponent. If defeated themselves, they knew the way to retreat, regroup, and fight again another day. If they won, then the victory was sweet.
