title: Python ElementTree find not working
body: <p>I am new to ElementTree. I'm trying to snag the <code>&lt;sid&gt;</code> value from an XML response.</p>
  
  <p>The following code is not working for me. How do I extract the value in <code>&lt;sid&gt;</code> ? I am not sure where the number <code>53</code> is coming from here. </p>
  
  <pre><code>    ...
      r = requests.post(self.dispatchurl, verify=False, auth=HTTPBasicAuth(self.user, self.passwd))
      print r.content
      tree = ET.ElementTree(r.content)
      print tree.find('sid')
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>output: </p>
  
  <pre><code>/usr/bin/python2.7 /home/myuser/PycharmProjects/autoshun/shunlibs/SplunkSearch.py
  &lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?&gt;
  &lt;response&gt;
    &lt;sid&gt;super__awesome__search__searchname_at_1489433276_24700&lt;/sid&gt;
  &lt;/response&gt;
