Storing xml data on django Model

I am trying to store XML file data from msn weather service on my models as you can see the code below

class XmlListConfig(list):
    def __init__(self, aList):
        for element in aList:
            if element:
                # treat like dict
                if len(element) == 1 or element[0].tag != element[1].tag:
                    self.append(XmlDictConfig(element))
                # treat like list
                elif element[0].tag == element[1].tag:
                    self.append(XmlListConfig(element))
            elif element.text:
                text = element.text.strip()
                if text:
                    self.append(text)

class XmlDictConfig(dict):
    def __init__(self, parent_element):
        if parent_element.items():
            self.update(dict(parent_element.items()))
        for element in parent_element:
            if element:
                if len(element) == 1 or element[0].tag != element[1].tag:
                    aDict = XmlDictConfig(element)
                else:
                    aDict = {element[0].tag: XmlListConfig(element)}
                if element.items():
                    aDict.update(dict(element.items()))
                self.update({element.tag: aDict})
            elif element.items():
                self.update({element.tag: dict(element.items())})
            else:
                self.update({element.tag: element.text})

def fixdate(value):
    return datetime.date(*time.strptime(value, '%Y-%m-%d')[:3])

class Command(NoArgsCommand):
    help = "This will update the weather reports by fetching xml from msn and storing data"

    def handle_noargs(self, **options):
        tree = ElementTree()
        path = urllib2.urlopen('http://ift.tt/1qw0HLF')
        tree = ET.parse(path)
        root = tree.getroot()
        xmllist=[]
        a = 0
        for i in root:
            xmllist = xmllist + [XmlDictConfig(i)]
        for i in xmllist:
            date = fixdate(i['date']) #Date, date=date heading=i['heading']
            a = Forecast.objects.create(mintemp=i['low'] ,maxtemp=i['high'],wind=i['wind'],rain=i['precipitation'],date=date)
            a.save()
            print "Data Updated"

I get a key error KeyError: 'date'
