Do you just want to run a command on the destination server or create
your own SSH client?  When I just want to run a command on the server
I take the easy way out and use a separate client and have my Python
script pass in the parameters.

On Linux I use the commandline ssh client and on Windows I use
Plink[1].  If I need to transfer files I'll use Plink to remotely
compress or prepare the files (c: I'm usually writing a program to ssh
from a Windows machine to a Linux server).  Then I use PSCP, from the
same site, to transfer the files to the local machine or upload the
files.

If you want to write your own SSH interface you may want to consider
reading OpenSSH Key Management[2] for information on RSA
Authentication.
