I'm not sure what the answerer above me was getting at exactly, but a few reasons I know of, and mind you this list is neither complete nor categorized, are as follows
-Some wanted the unconditional surrender of Germany (Henry Cabot Lodge Sr.--reservationist)
-Some believed the League of nations would result in the US entering conflicts when it was not of national interest to do so
-Some believed the League of Nations would minimize the US's power in decisions concerning the war
Mainly, they were opposed to the League of Nations. Hopefully, someone will stumble along who has a more extensive knowledge of this, but for now, I hope my contribution is somewhat helpful.
