Not really. Democrats "idolized" their president so much they basically forced him out of the race for being too old. This applies to one side: Republicans.

He should of never been allowed to run. Most people saw him losing his ability to govern coming.

Who, do you propose, would disallow him to run?

The dnc who made him the only candidate by threatening to withdraw all funding and kick out of the party everyone that was running against him.

The vast majority of sitting presidents run completely unopposed by their own party for re-election to a second term.
