`M-x customize-apropos delete'. If you can't fix it that way, then
try `f1 k', press the offending key, find out what it's called, and
rebind it in the `term-setup-hook'. Also see my xhypermap.m4 and
ext-fkeymap.el in <URL:http://master.debian.org/~karlheg/XE-Lisp>.

Don't set the font lock keywords to the python ones. Font lock mode
will do that for you when you visit a Python program.
Use `add-hook' rather than `setq' to get a hook function into a hook
list variable.
If you do `M-x load-library reftex', then `M-x customize-group
reftex', I think you'll find that it's a lot simpler than editting
.emacs.
Did you know about `M-x customize-apropos[Tab][Tab]' ?
Many of the settings you want are on the menubar (eg: global font
lock mode). Use the name of the item in the menubar as a hint as to
what variable you need to set via the `M-x customize' interface.

Those who do not study Lisp are doomed to reimplement it - Poorly.
A few months in the laboratory often saves several hours at the library.
