I often use Python for rapid prototyping and later rewrite parts of it in C
for speed.  It's always been a pleasant experience, and I've yet to come
across a Python construct that made my life especially difficult later.  The
value of rapid development and debugging algorithmic problems in Python has
always outweighed the cost of later translating some of the code.

Hope that helps,
