let's be honest: his lukewarm campaign didnt matter. no republican candidate would have been able to defeat obama in 2008. Obama was a great campaigner, and he was still fresh, people didnt know yet what a murky president he'd go on to be. on top of that, the national mood was strongly leaning towards the dems anyway after the bush presidency, with two disastrous wars, a huge economic crisis, a botched hurricane response and so on.
Obama was unbeatable in 2008. I think the fundamentals were so much against republicans in 2008 that not even Reagan could have defeated Hillary in that year.
it didn't matter when it came to the scoreboard yeah, no one was beating Obama in 2008 (doubt anyone would have been in him '12 either), but it matters in perception of a candidate and a politician. go down swinging or just say 'eh whatever im not winning this so i quit'.
