* Virgin Islands (89.9%)
* Idaho (79%)
* Hawaii (76%)
* Alaska (75%)
* District of Columbia (75%)
* Kansas (74%)
* Washington (68%)
* Nebraska (68%)
* Minnesota (67%)
* Colorado (67%)
* Georgia (67%)
* Illinois (65%)
* Virginia (64%)
* Maryland (62%)
* North Dakota (61%)
* Wyoming (61%)
* Mississippi (61%)
HILLARY CLINTON: 2 States
* Arkansas (70%)
* West Virginia (67)

Just to add to your realistic thinking, in Washington State after the Legislative District caucuses Barack's pledged delegate percentage grew to 70.5% (if memory is serving me well this morning).
I think Hillary is using the Bushian technique of if you say something loud enough and often enough, people will believe it. But hopefully that is outdated thinking and a return to the data is always helpful. Thanks!
In Feb, Obama won 59% of the state delegates in Maine. Maine's state convention is on May 31 and June 1 so watch to see if Obama extends his pledged delegate advantage from Maine to 60%+
