No.
Actually, if you are using a name in another module repeatedly in an inner loop, it can make a big difference if you have to lookup the name in the module repeatedly. In that case, just explicitly import the name you want to use repeatedly:
from Tkinter import Label, otherfunction, othervariable
Of course, you are not likely to see this use case when you're doing UI programming.
But don't do "from Tkinter import *" for the reasons Diez has identified in the FAQ. -- Michael Hoffman -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
