Ahh, got it! Actually this guy got it:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/1999-November/015613.html
Basically I named the source file itself odbc.py which was confusing python.
One other note: it still didn't work until I explicitely specified a
database, even though it was the default database, in the DSN. In using
Access to connect to a remote Postgres, I was able to leave "database"
blank
and it picked up the default. Not so for python ODBC.
