No, '==' works fine no matter what objects you assign to your state
variables.
class Foo(object):
STATE1 = object()
STATE2 = "testing"
STATE3 = 2
def __init__(self):
self.state = Foo.STATE1
def bar(self):
if self.state == Foo.STATE1:
pass
elif self.state == Foo.STATE2:
pass
elif self.state == Foo.STATE3:
pass

As shown, '==' does work for this too. I don't know which is more
correct, but it does work.
