Indeed, I checked that out in an old version of a Wikipedia article, but that was as early as May. I can't imagine her overperforming Obama's actual election result by that much.
She would definitely have done much better than Obama did, whether she won it or not. Obama being a black man and his "bitter clingers" comment definitely hurt him a lot in Arkansas. a white Democrat would have done better by default.
