It's partially wishful thinking, but Raitt's loss cannot be understated. She was the most moderate Conservative running in Ontario, and the avatar of the party's potential in the highly competitive, but lucrative Ontario 905 ridings. The loss of her voice and her seat doesn't bode well for CPC chances west of Manitoba unless some serious strategic rethinking occurs at the highest level of the CPC.
