Absurd! The CSA had no chance against the USA. The asymmetry in factories, etc meant it was a matter of time. Their ports were blockaded, and they had no means to sustain themselves in a protracted war.
War is far more complicated and unpredictable than this and have political factors that can influence outcomes. Will is always an intangible. I'm not saying that Stonewall living would have changed the ultimate outcome of the war, but to suggest the USA was an inevitable winner in any scenario is rather absurd and simplistic.
