The only way the south could have won the war is by abolishing slavery. That would make foreign intervention possible.

James Longstreet mentioned this.

the South possessed far superior commanders and soldiers at the beginning of the war.

Just. No. Who is in this pantheon of great leaders? Sterling Price, who was busy losing Missouri? Joe Johnston, who was running the war in Virginia? Beauregard, who was calling the shots in the western theater, but never won anything after Fort Sumter? How were any of those three going to win the war? None of them ever won anything of note.
