6052	SafeUnicode is not type.UnicodeType  in _mysql.connection.escape	Alexander	nobody	"Hello.

{{{cleaned_data['content']}}} is type `django.utils.safestring.SafeUnicode`

This get error when recording in a database.

Because, the function can only identify unicode or any other as string.

In _mysql.c:
{{{
static PyObject * _escape_item( PyObject *item, PyObject *d){
    PyObject *quoted=NULL, *itemtype, *itemconv;
    if (!(itemtype = PyObject_Type(item))) goto error;
    itemconv = PyObject_GetItem(d, itemtype);
}}}

Temporary solution to the problem:  {{{unicode(cleaned_data['content'])}}}
