It depends on whether it can contain whitespace or must contain
whitespace, and whether that whitespace may appear anywhere in the
string or only in a certain location, or after (or before) some other
matched pattern.

Examples:

[\w\s]+ will match "word" and/or whitespace, mixed.

\w+[\w\s]+ will match word and/or whitespace mixed, but must be
preceded by "word" characters.

\w+\s+\d+ will match "word" characters followed by whitespace followed
by one or more digits.

Have a look at the regex syntax here:
http://docs.python.org/library/re.html

Regular expressions are intimidating at first, but once you're
familiar with the meaning of the most commonly-used characters (*, +,
\w, \s, \d, ., {}) then you're most of the way there.
