I fluctuate back and forth between your premise and the other, which is that we saw this certain level of progress (which even I tend to cast doubt on) and became complacent. We won the arguments but never did anything further with it. Instead of continuing the KO blows we let them recover, regroup, and seize each opportunity that was given to them. Of course there’s other factors but I just can’t help but think we gave it to them through hubris more than anything else.
