But why would Draco say it?  He and everyone present would know it to 
be untrue, so it wouldn't even be a good tease.  And it still doesn't 
make sense that Harry, if he knew everyone was getting them, would 
feel the need to run away from one of these valentines.  It still 
seemse like a viable possibility, but I'm not sure that it explains 
things as well as Ginny actually having sent it.
