And the vast majority of the electorate is even more conservative now, while modern progressives have less broad party support than Obama did. Obama had also been working on and receiving POTUS chatter for years before throwing his hat in. There's just no one like that in today's party.
It's not 2008, and a comparison of Obama's chances then with someone sliding into the race this late is not based in reality. I really wish it was, but there is no Obama in today's DRC, and if there was, his campaign would still be starting 10 steps back to suddenly enter the race. I don't like it any more than the next guy, but I'm not gonna advocate for even worse chances against Trump.
I'm not taking that as fact without a decent source.
