Newbie regex question.

I have a regex = re.compile('yadda (widget1) (widget2) yadda')
and want to search a string I know to have multiple 
instances of this regex. I'm a tad confused by
the RE Howto, so I'd like to ask, how do I properly 
get a for loop to access the widget1 and widget2 
strings of each instance?

for instance in regex.search(string).groups() 
seems to be the right thing, but isn't working.
