Both of the above forms work fine here, as does using
MySQLdb.OperationalError:
------------------------------------------------
>>> import MySQLdb
>>> try:
...     db = MySQLdb.connect(user='jeffrey', host='localhost')
... except MySQLdb.OperationalError:
...     print 'caught'
...
caught

>>> import _mysql_exceptions
>>> try:
...     db = MySQLdb.connect(user='jeffrey', host='localhost')
... except _mysql_exceptions.OperationalError:
...     print 'caught'
...
caught

>>> from _mysql_exceptions import OperationalError
>>> try:
...     db = MySQLdb.connect(user='jeffrey', host='localhost')
... except OperationalError:
...     print 'caught'
...
caught

>>> MySQLdb.OperationalError is _mysql_exceptions.OperationalError
True
>>> MySQLdb.__version__
'1.2.2'
------------------------------------------------
