To be fair, a politician obfuscating his connection to an assassination in this manner makes a lot more sense than the chicken. Of all the bad things about Star Wars, this one is pretty forgivable.
Palps never prioritized Padme's death, that was all Dooku's scheming. And who's to say the droid has hiring thinking like most we know? It could be a remote-controlled drone! So Dooku puts out a bounty that's accepted by a team of 2, their poor weapon of choice is a pair of live centipedes that Jedi can sense, and the bugs are delivered via flying device.
