I had an older version of requests(0.8.6) installed which caused problems to this plugin while loading up. I see that you bundle the requests library with the plugin, but since you append lib after the system path, the older version gets picked up.

Specifically the exception occured while trying to instantiate a sessions object with verify=True. The older version didnt support verify and would thus bail. But Im sure there were other problems. I solved it by upgrading my requests version, but this will be a problem for anyone who has an older requests library version in their system path.
