None of the three candidates are likely to recognize Hamas or negotiate with them. The only difference between the three candidates is that McCain is willing to be openly hostile with them.
I can't possibly imagine better foreign policy than that. To me, foreign policy does not need to be defined by doing what's in the best interest of making peace. It's doing what's in the best interests of the United States, even if it doesn't earn you friends. Fuck Hamas, they can all die.

I think the fact that his name is "Baraq Hussein Obama" may have helped sway them as well. If someone named "Charles W. Jones" were running for President of Iran, I would definitely be tempted to endorse him.
