M-x pdb in gud.el invokes the python debugger.  Ken Mannheimer has written
pdbtrack which Python users say is better.  I've tried to scope it out in
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2006-08/msg00930.html
but it's not been added to Emacs as there is uncertainty over original
authorship.

Emacs 22.1 includes a python-mode package in a file called python.el.  I
suggest you use that one (with 22.1).
