Because Bretons.
Bretons are the ultimage Elf killers, they have a magic resistance while being proficient at magic themselves wich is very good because Altmer have a weakness to getting hit my magic. Besides, the Imperials also have good mages, light infantry, archers and cavalry to take down mages quickly.
Not to mention the heavy legions.

I wouldn't say the Thalmor have the Empire by the neck, but I'm sure they'd like to give off that impression. The Dominion is severely weakened and probably won't replenish those forces for the very reason Alduin mentioned. Female elves have very few births in their life time, unlike human based races, and thus prevents them from replenishing troops as fast as humans.
The Dominions position should now be defensive, and it's hard to make friends when they have just angered their neighbors.

Yeah and like USA did with Japan, they accepted people from the Summerset isles after their invasion with a giant Metal golem(Hiroshima with Tha Bomb) so they could keep a peace with fear. Has Japan invaded or attacked USA back?... .... No right? But what if it did happen? And if they got allies within China and Vietnam? Then it would happen what did in Skyrim

Then they are really THAT racist? How are they going to keep Tamriel in check then? They got to have some hidden ace under their sleeve to be so bold then. Joining 2 of the best sneaking races, one ranged and one meelee, being great at magic themselves, the might have something or their strategy is just that strong.
They are too smart, maybe enough to keep the Empire in check -
If the Empire retains Skyrim, the Empire will win the next war.
Even if the Elves won all humans would rebel constantly and there would be no hope for peace.
Seems like an intresting storyline for the series though. Elven victory ===> Human Rebellion ====> Argonian intervention with some very mean revenge ====> Human and Elves as wel as the beast races unite to fight these sudden hate driven invaders ====> They win at a great cost. ====> All Human, Elven and beast kingdoms are exhausted and ruined, ====> Akaviri Races arrive ====> ????? =====> Profit???
