Explanation:

The gilded age politics was characterized by intense competition between the democrats and the republicans who were the two major parties, with minor parties coming and going.

The gilded age politics was not significantly different from the politics today.

There was high voter turnout and elections were close. There was a lot of lobbying and businessmen supported politicians who would make favourable decisions for them. Both democrats and republicans favoured business interests.

Republicans called for high tariffs while democrats wanted free trade. Religious lines were sharply drawn in politics. The Protestant church supported the democrats while the Catholic church and Lutheran church supported the republicans.

It was possible, as the Continental Army actually had more troops than the British Army in the 13 colonies. However, it would be a lot less likely.

It also depends what you mean by "without the French". Do you mean without the French Army, or do you mean no aid from the french at all? (no supplies, no arms, no ammunition, no training, no money, etc)
