I think we would have had a much better chance of seeing Snowden make a difference had he "happened" during a republican presidency. Many sports team style democrats I knew who were flipping out about surveillance during the last Bush administration quickly switched over to "having nothing to hide" and calling Snowden a traitor because "their team" was in office at the time. People rarely seem to have any actual principles they're willing to stand by when tribalism comes into play.
