who is going to fill the vacuum of charting a new future of egypt? >> it will be the military in consultation with others. and remember that the muslim brotherhood is just one component here. what you'll see is a lot of people that there is consultation across many different lines. this is not at all like iran in 1979. i think we have every reason to be hopeful that this is not going to turn into a radical islamic regime. so i think the president, the secretary of state, the vice president of the united states have all done a commendable job in negotiating and talking and nudging, that's what this is. they have nudged mubarak along until he finally saw the handwriting on the wall. >> senator bill nelson, always good to talk you to. thank you for joining us.
