messytable fails to recognize
[this tab-separated table](https://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/ckannet-storage/2012-02-04T153033/2012-Presidential-Campaign-Finance-Contributors.tsv). Here's what I tried:

```python
from messytables import CSVRowSet
from urllib import urlopen
file = urlopen('./2012-Presidential-Campaign-Finance-Contributors.tsv')
rs = CSVRowSet('data', file)
sample = list(rs.sample)
len(sample[0]) # = 1
```
