There are two python modes -- python.el and python-mode.el
Default with emacs is python.el, what comes from/with python is python-
mode.el (needs a download and a couple of lines of setup see
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/PythonMode). I recommend python-mode.

The key-bindings are different --C-c ! to start interpreter followed
by C-c C-c to exec a file.
