I agree with a few of his points, especially the HTML injection parts, but the whole point of wordpress is how easy it is to run and install, switching to django would possibly destroy this. This seems like a classic case of irrelevant conclusion. But heck, just write your own CMS and compete with wordpress. You wouldn't be the first.

Wordpress is a gateway drug to programming. Not happy with the API, write your own... I think that one of wordpress's major strengths is the incredible amount of man hours spent on that product, probably more than a hundred thousand people have programmed to some extent on it, and that gives a product which possibly can fulfill any need, but also has a security patch twice a month. Myself, I've written my own blogging engines/cms which is fun but I've gone back to wordpress recently and the latest versions are pretty slick. I don't think django could easily do wordpress selfupdate.
