This has been the impression I got all along. Linda always thinks she's right, which is why she persisted with all the attacks on Jim in spite of the obvious public support for him. She cannot cope with people who have a different view from hers, so she controls and manipulates people to get their agreement, or punishes them.

She has now seen that she's at risk of losing support, so she tried to rescue the situation by acknowledging that she might be at fault, but then pulled out her dead widow card to justify herself, as if the behaviour only started with the FC stuff... thus putting all the blame back on Jim again. It was a totally transparent, fake apology. Why did she suddenly want to apologise for nominating him? She never did before.
