Common error is believing that, had Lincoln lost the Election of 1864, that "President" McClellan would have sued for peace. McClellan strongly supported continuing the war and complete victory against the Rebels. He publicly repudiated his party's platform which called for cessation of hostilities and campaigned to continue the war.

True. But his party's platform was strictly anti-war, as was McClellan's running mate.
