He wasn't crazy. ...Well, no. I'm pretty sure he was crazy. But he was an overglorified D student who hired crazier and more dependable people than he was.
And to be fair Voldemort's physical abilities in his new body were never put to the full test. If you want to talk Pre-Goblet of fire, then yeah, I'd argue he was fucked. But that entire story was about him building a new body that wasn't frail. And he might have hated non-magic stuff, but he wasn't stupid and he was dead paranoid.
