No way, no how. In 1968, LBJ had just won the New Hampshire Primary by 7% over Eugene McCarthy, not a convincing margin. Robert Kennedy was tuning up to run, and in my opinion might have gotten the nomination.

Absolutely correct. LBJ lost the stomach for a bruising and humiliating primary battle (with its very likely outcome of an extremely humiliating defeat). Nothing like that is even remotely going on right now. This idea of Obama stepping down is a childish fantasy along the lines of belief in Santa Claus, or a belief that Obama will be impeached because of his Kenyan birth.

Earth to conservatives: the only way to rid ourselves of The Great Usurper is to defeat him in the general election in November.
