Title: Support python 2.5

Older LTS versions of ubuntu (and other OSes probably) rely fairly heavily on python 2.5. It's not much work to supported it so I did. Only two changes required:

1) Use 2.5-style except statements (except Exception, e rather than except Exception as e)

2) Fall back to the backport version of json (simplejson) if the json import fails
