How had Padme's decoy faild?
There's something I don't really get in AOTC. Padme's decoy was killed, because Padme's assasan thought she was Padme & for some reason Padme's decoy says, "I've faild you senetor!" But what I wonder is, How??? Her job was to be a decoy for Padme, so people who would try to kill Padme (thinking she was Padme) would kill her instead. So if you ask me; she sucseeded. Does anyone here know exactly how she faild Padme?

I wonder if Saddam's decoys think that they failed him?
Maybe it was a decoy when they hung Saddam?

like what? and it wast suggested that they are meant for dying.
decoys are meant to divert a possible violent attack from its intended target.
that is what she did, and so she succeeded.
Who cares, really
Could be that the decoy was fully briefed and speech prepped ready to take center stage in the debate/vote on the military creation act...which is what Padme was returning to Coruscant for on this occasion...
(This is what motivated the timing in the attempted proxy assassination by Palpatine through Zam through Fett, after all..)
Outside of this, (I can't think of anything else her statement would have been refering to) failing to gratify and entertain the cinema audience with a soapy fun session with Padme may have been the egregious error that she quite rightfully would have flagellated herself over. 😛
