in reply to Perl or Python?

Does a car fare better than an airplane if I'm traveling somewhere?

Seriously though, this is such an open ended question it can't really be answered without more specific information about the project.

If you have a really good OO Perl programmer who has never used Python, then for some types of projects it is likely Perl would fare well.
