Unless you are calling reload() on the module, it will only ever get
_loaded_ once. Each additional import will just yield the existing

to believe that the class variables are getting reinitialized I can
provide more useful help.

There is one situation where a module can be imported/executed twice, if
it is the __main__ module. Obviously the example below would be
considered bad Python practice but it just shows how it can be done:
main.py:
class Blah(object):
def action(self):
print "action"
print "import"
if __name__ == "__main__":
import app
app.run()
app.py:
def run():
import main
blah = main.Blah()
blah.action()
python main.py:
import
import
action
The reason is the first time main.py gets loaded, it is known as
'__main__' but when app imports main, it is not in sys.modules so it
loads 'main.py' again but this time as 'main'
