Meh. Republicans don't really have a focal point of national disdain right now, whereas the right despises Obama, the middle is dubious of him, and the left don't really like him any more than any other generic liberal politician. He might not be up for reelection, but his presence in the nation's mind is still going to affect how we view any Democrat.
And like I said before, nobody really likes Hillary. She's uninspiring to Democrats, and Republicans want her head on a pike. She'll only win if she has a challenger as vanilla as her.
