In a tight race, well, Dems remember what the effect of Ralph Nadir was on the Gore/Bush election. A centrist would pull more from the left, methinks, than the right, especially if Schultz is pro-choice.
In my view, Dems best hope is Kamala Harris, I listened to her today on her announcement, I felt similar vibes as I got when I heard Obama speak. It was moving. She could be the candidate we're looking for, someone who could galvanize the left, and mop the floor with what's left of Trump's scalp ( righties, we know you don't like her ) so if she is the nominee I think she would beat Trump by a big enough margin to not be thwarted by a Schultz run.
However, no one knows, at this point, he's not formally announced it.

Several Democrats have voiced concern over a potential Schultz White House bid, including (Julian) Castro on Sunday morning. Castro told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union," he is concerned that if Schultz runs "it would provide Donald Trump with his best hope of getting re-elected."
