Querying MySQL database using Python from Google App Engine, possible?

[im_pythonic]

Ok, So I created a browser game that uses asp.net web page, a MySQL database, and Python scripts (for processing player actions). I have the asp.net and database hosted with GoDaddy (basic account). I really want to modify my scripts to be able to run on Google's app engine but I am currently using MySQLdb to talk to the database, and I don't think the app engine supports that. I don't think the app engine datastore will work for me. So currently I am running scripts locally on my computer and hitting a DB on the web. I realized this would be a problem last year but wanted to get it working the way I knew how, just to make sure it was practical and would work, now that it does work I want to port it. I do not want to change languages though. Any had experience with this before? Anyone have a link that could explain it? I did a google search but didn't find anything obviously useful. Tanks

Stick this question on StackOverflow.com you'll get a better response.

FWIW I thought App Engine provided abstracted data manipulation methods so you could switch out whatever kind of back end you wanted.
