He kept the Confederacy in the War.
Explanation:
The doctrine of "States Rights" at the center of the Rebellion was against a strong central government needed to effectively fight the War. Any effort to centralize authority to fight the war was met with strong resistance.
Davis also had a habit of "micro-managing" subordinates.
