I'm trying to get pip on my USB drive. Following the instructions on this web sit, I downloaded get-pip.py and run python get-pip.py (python is in the environment path). Unfortunately the script through an error. I have uploaded the log file to here. The error itself is:
Exception:

Can any one explain to me what I did wrong?
I'm using portable python 3.2.5.1, and it was fresh from the installation until I tried installing pip.
