If you use the DOM implementation that comes in the PyXML package 
(by the xml-sig), it can be as simple as:

from xml.dom.ext.reader import Sax2
document = Sax2.FromXml('<doc>here's a document</doc>')

And then you can access the various parts of the document using the DOM 
interfaces.

print document.documentElement.firstChild

Python 2.0 also offers SAX implementation. I can provide an example for this 
too if you want, but it really depends on the kind of XML processing you want 
to do, so maybe if you provided a more specific example, we could help better.
