Didn’t He Mean to Say, “Finest” Moment?

Howard Wolfson of the Clinton campaign sent out an e-mail to the press last night, extolling Hillary’s gracious closing comments at the end of the debate with Barack Obama in Texas.
Her declaration that she was “honored” to be on the same national stage with Obama was universally praised, but to some it sounded like a valadictory to a faltering campaign.
Even Wolfson’s e-mail was headed, “Final Moment.” Perhaps a Freudian slip?
Here is his statement in full:
“What we saw in the final moments in that debate is why Hillary Clinton is the next President of the United States. Her strength, her life experience, her compassion. She’s tested and ready. It was the moment she retook the reins of this race and showed women and men why she is the best choice.”
