Surprised no one has posted hitler yet.

McClellan doesn't deserve his bad reputation. He did better than any other commander of the Army of the Potomac against Lee. The war would have been won a year or two earlier if Lincoln didn't sack him.

Adolf Hitler.

You can't be serious... He was an excellent organizer but a shit field commander, of all the commanders of the Army of the Potomac he was the only one to get sacked TWICE. He was arrogant, timid, indecisive, publicly disdainful of his superiors and a bit of a dick.

He COULD have taken Richmond during the Peninsula campaign, he COULD have destroyed Lee at Antietam, instead he bungled both royally. It's a measure of both Lincoln's patience and desperation for some kind of useful leadership that he stayed in command as long as he did and was reinstated after being replaced the first time.

Absolutely based.

Idk about him yet.

>believing Sears memes

I feel sorry for you fampai.

These senpaitachi have it right. McClellan only had roughly a 5:4 manpower advantage at Antietam, and a few thousand of his men were green troops straight from training and basically worthless.

Continuing the Sears meming I see.

He was the best Union general of the war, or at least top 3. He defeated Lee in West Virginia in the start. He organized the overall Union strategy that eventually won the war. He was only fired by Lincoln because Lincoln was a moron when it came to political matters, and because he was a Democrat.

He could have taken Richmond in the Peninsula Campaign if Lincoln didn't hamstring him by removing his forces and giving him retarded orders like "leave your right flank open to connect with the men marching from Fredericksburg that would have been with your army but I pulled out because I was too pussy to leave the direct route to DC undefended - hehe just kidding I'll send them to the Valley to get fucked by Jackson on a wild goose chase!"

McClellan saved the Union in the Antietam campaign. The Antietam campaign was a crushing defeat for Lee. Also, before you bring it up, the Lost Orders had no impact on the campaign except confirming what McClellan already deduced. Note: the marching orders for the next day had already gone out by the time the Lost Order reached McClellan's hands.

Anti-McClellan meming was started by Lincoln and the Republicans to shit on him as a presidential candidate, and it continued after the war with moronic retard authors like Sears who distort facts and numbers to fit their agenda.

Also, McClellan's original plan to bypass the overland route to Richmond and use the James River was completely correct. It utilized the two biggest advantages the Union had: water control and siege warfare. Lincoln was a moron obsessed with open-field battles. Eventually, Grant's overland campaign failed and he switched to McClellan's suggested line of operations, the James River, and this ended up being the winning move. Grant did in 1864 what McClellan wanted to do in 1862 - only difference was Grant had the political capital to do it with Lincoln.

Note also: Grant wanted McClellan to command the Army of the James but Lincoln blocked it.

Lee also called McClellan his most able opponent.

Also, McClellan was outnumbered in the Seven Days battles but executed a brilliant change of base after Lincoln's order to extend his right flank and keep it open became untenable due to Jackson's flank attack.

Even dumbass Stanton realized that McClellan's new position on the James was a more advantageous position, in his own words at the time:
Stanton: "McClellan has moved his whole force across the Chickahominy and rests on the James River, being supported by our gun boats. The position is favorable, and looks more like taking Richmond than any time before.”

Further, you probably don't even know about McClellan's successful post-Antietam campaign that Lincoln pulled the plug on right in the middle.
