It would have been ineveitable for the south. They had not the man power nor the resources. Their only hope was that the citezens of the north would clamor so hard for peace that Lincoln would have been forced to make peace with Richmond
As with most of mankinds decsions it's rarely about the people and more about the money. I believe Economics was more a factor for the war then was the simple truth that human beings should not be held in bondage. Most people in the south did not own slaves and many people in th north, though against slavery, did not feel the black man was their equal, regardless of his skill or education. There really was no noble cause for either side.
