Roosevelt's victory was such a landslide because of the amount of time Hoover had to screw up and disprove the notion that voting Republican meant voting for prosperity, and the Dust Bowl flipping Republicans' traditional base in the Plains, and Roosevelt being a fairly trusted name in national politics compared to Al Smith. The election here would be only a week after the crash- pretty much everyone still thought it was just a little hiccup at that point in OTL 1929. For a better outcome, try a crash in 1925.
