The coming war crisis. New England Yankees were Anglophiles, and as such wanted to help Great Britain fight Nazi Germany. They strongly approved of FDR's Lend-Lease program, and were alienated by the isolationism of conservative Republicans.

I will also add to this fine analyisis that there was a national distrust in Wilkie's leadership abilities.
