installed application throws CertificateHostnameMismatch about google-api-python-client

[GoogleCodeExporter]

FYI, 
I have worked past this problem by making the following change to the code:
http_auth = credentials.authorize(httplib2.Http())
is now:
http_auth = 
credentials.authorize(httplib2.Http(disable_ssl_certificate_validation=True))

But, doing so has resulting in the repressing the prior certificate error 
message, while triggering another error (likely caused by my code, which I am 
now investigating):

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hopefully, I'll resolve this one shortly.
