I´m not very experienced with Python but I think you could do it in a 
more simple way.


inp = raw_input('Enter a string: ')

pal = []
rev = []
for c in inp:
     if c.isalnum():
         pal.append(c.upper())
         rev.append(c.upper())
rev.reverse()
if pal == rev:
     print '"' + inp + '" ' + 'is a palindrome.'
else:
     print '"' + inp + '" ' + 'is no palindrome.'
