I don't think it's so clear-cut.

From the same interview:

"Goldberg: Why do you think Ahmed Yousef of Hamas said what he said about you?

Obama: My position on Hamas is indistinguishable from the position of Hillary Clinton or John McCain. I said they are a terrorist organization and I’ve repeatedly condemned them. I’ve repeatedly said, and I mean what I say: since they are a terrorist organization, we should not be dealing with them until they recognize Israel, renounce terrorism, and abide by previous agreements."
Notice that Obama never answered the question, which was "Why do you think Ahmed Yousef of Hamas said what he said about you?"

The Hamas leader's statement: “We like Mr. Obama and we hope that he will win the election.”

Hmmm... Why, oh why, would a leader of Hamas endorse Obama? And since he obviously does, why would anyone who opposes terrorism agree with the Hamas pick for president?
