"I out-thought myself"
Annette-
That's the fundamental mistake for taking multiple choice tests! :) (Another 
way to say, we've all done that!) I agree with you that the item isn't great. 
But it is one of those kinds of items that I use a few of with the additional 
instruction, "Pick the best answer and below the question explain why it is 
best." Students hate it the first time but actually grow to like it 
(generally!) and several have said it helps them perform better on MC tests.
