Amir. The python binding in the packaged windows binaries expect to find the datasource plugins in a specific place. So you need to put them in c:\mapnik_072 (or something like that). I am traveling right now so I don't know the exact directory name but you can get it by following the install instructions at trac.mapnik.org/wiki/WindowsInstallation
