Ted Kennedy. There's a good body of evidence that Kennedy would have defeated Reagan if he had gotten through the 1980 primaries. Kennedy was winning liberal support as well as urban ethnic support and consistently outshined Carter in the polls. Check out "Kennedy Vs Carter-the 1980 Battle for the Democratic Party's Soul" if you want a good book about this.

Ted Kennedy would have done better than Carter but still handily lost

Reagan 369
Kennedy 169

Democrats maybe hold on to Senate though
