No one ever thinks that when the song is background music 30 minutes after a speech...no one. Most people with brains realize the political parties pick the songs much like DJ's do at weddings. The proper fees are paid and the songs are played. The song wasn't anything but background music in this instance and warranted no explanation. Heart is a totally different story. Barracuda came immediately following the speech, and though I still disagree with them addressing the situation (and their stupid political views) I respect their right to distance themselves since the song was played at such a poignant moment.

I have "every right" to walk around town slurping goat jizz out of a pail. Doesn't mean it's not a stupid idea.
