I can see the Maginot line military comparison too. Although the difference is with the Maginot broken, the Germans pretty much took most of France with little or no resistance, like in a weekend or something. For that reason the Normandy invasion comparison I think works a little better, because the Germans still had some fight left to continue on for some time, even though everyone in the Third Reich (with the probably exception of Hitler) secretly knew it was pointless. And that is more than anything the way I see the Clinton campaign right now.
Not to make a big deal about the comparisons like this. It's just a comparison, not a portent of what is to come.
