After the incredible Confederate victory at 1st Manassas, the Union army was in shambles, the Command Staff failed to prevent a rout, which caused a massive unorderly retreat to Washington.
George Templeton Strong called the day "Black Monday" in regards to the devastating effect on the Union moral and war effort.
And yet Beauregard failed to capitalize on this success with a second attack, I think it was William Gladstone that made a comment as to why Beauregard didn't attack Washington.
What would have happened had Beauregard followed up on his victory in 1st Manassas and attacked Washington D.C.?

An actual 90 day's war with a Confederate Victory?
