The quote is not out of context. Check it out. Try Lexis-Nexis.

You need to produce the source of the quote. SOP.

Moreover, you have quoted Rice saying "She's [Condi] asked her staff to look into that. Why is it that we didn't see this coming?"

Does not make sense for Condi to refer to herself as 'She'. I suspect that you are paraphrasing rather than 'quoting'.

U.S. State Department to investigate failure to foresee Hamas victory

................

The United States is examining why it was caught off guard by Hamas' victory in Palestinian legislative elections last week, the U.S. State Department said Wednesday.

U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice acknowledged earlier this week that she was surprised by Hamas's defeat of the Fatah party, which had dominated Palestinian politics for years.

"She's asked her staff to look into that. Why is it that we didn't see this coming?" US State Department spokesman Sean McCormack said.
