Vim sources plugins in the order determined by 'runtimepath',
typically

~/.vim
/usr/local/share/vim/vimfiles
/usr/local/share/vim/vim73
/usr/local/share/vim/vimfiles/after
~/.vim/after

so anything you set in ~/.vim/ftplugin/python/python.vim may be
overwritten in /usr/local/share/vim/vim73/ftplugin/python.vim. You
can add code to your plugin to prevent the contents of Vim's plugin
from being executed, but that isn't what you want to do here.
Instead, you should put your option setting in
~/.vim/after/python.vim or ~/.vim/after/python/python.vim so that
yours is set after Vim's.
