Kun> assuming that my date column is 2, how would i parse out the date?

No parsing required.  Just get its date:

    d = record[2].date()

The str() of a datetime.date object is a string in YYYY-MM-DD form.

I think MySQLdb automatically returns datetime objects when the column data
type is date.
