That is true. What makes matters worse, is that once Junior went to prison, Peter stepped up. Gotti, Sr. even once commented that Peter was the dumbest man he ever saw. Peter did nothing but help the Gambinos decline. Gotti, Sr. WAS to involved in the spotlight, and tried to bring media attention for eaverything he did. The Mafia was supposed to avoid attention, but Gotti craved it.

I personally liked Anastasia better than Gambino, but Anastasia was too ruthless and bloodthirsty to be an effective leader. It was probably better for the Gambinos that Don Carlo took over.
