Function sleep(seconds) from module time is pretty much the best. Remember seconds is a float so you can delay 0.5 seconds.

import time

print "Hello ..."
time.sleep(2.5)  # wait 2.5 seconds
print "... there!"

sorry, posted late. ;)

If you import the time module, you can use the sleep function.

time.sleep(seconds)

ex: time.sleep(5) waits five seconds
