Hello Cliff,
I'm using datetime queries to filter results based on a date interval.  You
could try using the between() construct to get the records you desire.
Something like this:

q = q.filter(between(Post.c.post_date,start_date,end_date))

Specifying the query this way works for me.  Hope that helps.

Regards,
Rooju
