It is not about semantics, it's about the style.

http://www.python.org/doc/essays/styleguide.html:

"A style guide is about consistency. Consistency with this style guide 
is important. Consistency within a project is more important. 
Consistency within one module or function is most important."

If there is a particular reason why single quotes are preferable, the 
way to go is to change *all* occurrences within the file (and module, 
and project), not just one single line.
