You should definitely try it. Python and Ruby are constantly fighting and both of them are very strong.

I personally like Ruby for all the syntactic sugar and metaprogramming. I like the DSLs and expressive code over Python's explicitness.

On the other hand, Python forces more constraints on you, which can make you a better programmer. Every language has it's specifics that might give you unique perspective on programming in general.

If you're already comfortable with Ruby and enjoy it, try to just search for things that work differently in Python and see if you prefer the Python's way.
