they were saying it's a referendum on Obama because they thought that would help them win.

Now they are expecting to lose, so they can't have people see it as a referendum on Obama, because they will want to keep blocking him. So they are saying, never mind what we said about the referendum, this election had nothing to do with Obama.

Over the years, in interviews, I have noticed that Luntz is happy to explain how he shapes his propaganda. He spills his methods as if he knows it won't affect the results.

Just my observation.
