"They're the government" -

And the reason they're the government is because Bush pressured Israel and the Palestinians into holding an election before they were ready to do it. Some days it seems like every problem we have is partly of his making.

McCAIN: "They're the government; sooner or later we are going to have to deal with them, one way or another, and I understand why this administration and previous administrations had such antipathy towards Hamas because of their dedication to violence and the things that they not only espouse but practice, so . . . but it's a new reality in the Middle East. I think the lesson is people want security and a decent life and decent future, that they want democracy. Fatah was not giving them that." </P></BLOCKQUOTE></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/05/15/exclusive-video-mccain-wa_n_102031.html"><div align="center"><embed src="http://admin.brightcove.com/viewer/federated_f8.swf?flashId=flashObj0&servicesURL=http:%2F%2Fservices.brightcove.com%2Fservices&viewerSecureGatewayURL=https:%2F%2Fconsole.brightcove.com%2Fservices%2Famfgateway&cdnURL=http:%2F%2Fadmin.brightcove.com&autoStart=false&preloadBackColor=%23FFFFFF&width=486&height=412&playerId=1554364309&externalAds=false&sendReports=false&buildNumber=877&ranNum=952363" height="329" width="400" wmode="opaque" quality="high" allowscriptaccess="always" base="http://admin.brightcove.com/viewer/" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" seamlesstabbing="false" swliveconnect="true" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed></div></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/0D964413-111C-4449-B69C-ED343AB9B571/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
