Have you considered SQLAlchemy <www.sqlalchemy.org>? It has a Core layer 
that is essentially a Python interface to SQL and an ORM layer that 
allows you to use objects to implicitly manipulate the database. In 
addition, you can swap out backends, so you're not necessarily stuck 
with an initial DB choice.
