Have you tried using the creationflags argument to subprocess.Popen?
Specially the CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE flag. See the Microsoft documentation
for CreateProcess at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms682425(VS.85).aspx
(Note that a process can be attached at most to one console)

If your goal is to output some debug information, try using
OutputDebugString + the DebugView utility from www.sysinternals.com
