As others have confirmed, SQLAlchemy is far and away the most popular
Python ORM.

Another one to have a look at though is Dejavu (http://www.aminus.net/
dejavu).  The user community isn't nearly as large but the software
itself is quite good.  One of its distinctives is that you can treat
multiple disparate data stores as one cohesive relational structure.
It also isn't bound to SQL databases.  There are storage
implementations included for file system, Shelve and in-memory
storage.  The 2.0 alpha code in trunk also has a memcached storage
implementation.
