I think her explanation that she was just reaching for an example of 
a primary that was determined late on is plausible. Sure, its crass 
and a dumb thing to say, and a professional poltician should be no 
better, but even to professional politicians, Hanlons Razor applies - 
when incompetence is a perfectly reasonable explanation, why assume a 
clever but malicious one?

        Politicians apologise for things they didn't mean, or say 
they didn't mean, all the time.

        Cheers
