The problem appears to be definitional. Many posters in the thread you linked shared maps that were quite similar to the final results; they just seem to disagree on what constitutes a "landslide" victory. In 2008, it was more common for people to use the term only for LBJ- or Reagan-like victories, since the 1980s were only two decades ago.
