Write up the same simple example in Python and in a different language that is better suited to the task. If the other language is that much easier, it should be easy to convince people with the example. Often times you think "since my team is using Python that'll be easiest" but if you have to rely on libraries (even parts of the standard lib) that your teammates don't often use then you might not be getting as much benefit as you'd think. A practical example might show everyone that switching languages to get access to a better interface for your problem might be easier for everyone. It might also show you that Python is actually the right choice, so it's a good exercise.
