Oh... and you can tell how young the reporter is that they can't think of any rough stretches that politicians have had past the second Bush election.

I mean... Dukakis and his stretch with the tank? Mondale's entire run? Bob Dole... being Dole

In this case, one might argue that.  But, the parallels here are that a Mass. flip-flopper is running against a sitting president that is not having things going well, and Romney is facing swiftboating.  This election does have overtones connected to the 2004 race actually.
