There is no native support for Python in Condor. However, that shouldn't prevent you from submitting Python programs as vanilla universe jobs. Off the top of my head, I'd start with a submit file like this:

universe = vanilla

executable = /usr/bin/python

arguments = my_script.py

transfer_input_files = my_script.py

should_transfer_files = IF_NEEDED

Hope this helps,
