The US would have had to "carry the ball" for the Eastern war, and I don't think the population would have stood for it. In addition, without time for retrenchment the Allies logistics would have collapsed. It is an interesting "what if" but I just can't see the needed popular support for extending WW2 much beyond where it finished.
