I see that politicians and media in Canada are being as foolish as their brothers in the USA.  Don't focus on the guy who has not declared and may not run.  Don't keep talking about him.  Ms Raitt either in desperation or poor judgement has decided to run against a mirage, handing over more publicity for the mirage than for her own campaign.  No one wins running an "anyone but X" campaign.  Tell us what you want to do please.  
News media, please tell us about her and stop chasing the phantom sensation.  If you continue, you will create reality from fantasy.
