After trying that and getting the mildly annoying root window to pop up I
did a quick search and found how to hide that window.

from Tkinter import Tk
root = Tk()
root.withdraw()
tkMessageBox.showinfo("Window", "Root window is gone!")

If you need it back, root.deiconfiy() will show the window again.
