Checking if type == list in python

by

I may be having a brain fart here, but I really can’t figure out what’s wrong with my code:

for key in tmpDict:
    print type(tmpDict[key])
    time.sleep(1)
    if(type(tmpDict[key])==list):
        print 'this is never visible'
        break

the output is <type 'list'> but the if statement never triggers. Can anyone spot my error here?
