Certainly. I'll leave out the trial-and-error of my actual search,
and just give you the method at which I arrived.
Starting at the original page --
http://video.google.com/videopreview?docid=1692253451855759002 -- I
searched for a word from the last portion (2 minutes) that I thought
would be uncommon in the remainder of the transcript. In this case,
"mccain":
http://video.google.com/videopreview?q=mccain&docid=1692253451855759002
As you see, that brings up the segment from 2 minutes to 4 minutes.
If I had searched for a more common word, Google Video would have
found several occurrences throughout the transcript, such as:
http://video.google.com/videopreview?q=they&docid=1692253451855759002
The "mccain" search identified one occurrence of that term, and then
presented the next four portions of the transcript, even though they
lack the term.
Using the results of the "mccain" search, I was able to find a
similarly uncommon word in the 2 minutes 30 seconds portion, and
search for it. (I probably should have chosen something more unlikely
than "export," but it worked.)
http://video.google.com/videopreview?q=export&docid=1692253451855759002
I then repeated this process, searching for "possies" from the 4
minutes 30 seconds portion, then for "perspectives" from the 5 minutes
portion (again, perhaps not the best choice) ... and so on for the
other segments.
Complicated, but effective.
