The lottery draft took a lot of the bogus urgency out of the anti-war movement. Also as is pointed out by a poster draft calls fell very steeply. By1972 the anti-war movement boasted many generals without armies to lead. The late December 72 bombings brought out large crowds in NYC and SF but nothing like the constant demonstration drumbeat of 69-71.
