The fact is Johnson had worse Democrats but better Republicans to work with in 64.
It isn't spin. The simple fact is Clinton had a way more conservative body to work with (56 vs 60) is a bit of a deal but so is 15 vs 5. To take one example. DADT repeal got every single Democratic vote in 2010. In 1993, only Robb, among Senators serving in the old confederacy supported gay serving openly. Right there, gays serving became a majority issue the other way in the Senate.
