Why do some historians claim the US Civil War was lost by the South at the end of 1864?

Hindsight is always 20-20, and ideas about how long the US Civil War might last at any given point in time is a tough prediction to make. Some historians claim that until late in 1864, the Confederacy was still a viable Rebel government. A small minority of historians claim that the war was actually over by the end of 1864. They reason that since that only 50% of Southern soldiers were still in their assigned combat units, most Southerners had given up the fight. Of course this remains a controversy.
