No, that won't work with a plain Python dict (it could be made to work
on a custom object, but that doesn't appear to be what you have here).

Actually, you probably have a .NET dictionary (which is shown as dict,
confusingly) - the question is whether it's generic or not. Can you
try calling verifiedValues.GetType()?

Also, is there a reason you're using 2.6? I believe 2.7 has some fixes
around generics, so that may be necessary.
