Class has no objects member

by 
def index(request):
   latest_question_list = Question.objects.all().order_by('-pub_date')[:5]
   template = loader.get_template('polls/index.html')
   context = {'latest_question_list':latest_question_list}
   return HttpResponse(template.render(context, request))

The first line of that function gets an error on Question.objects.all():

E1101: Class ‘Question’ has no ‘objects’ member

I’m following the Django documentation tutorial and they have the same code up and running.

I have tried calling an instance.

Question = new Question()
and using MyModel.objects.all()

Also my models.py code for that class is this…

class Question(models.Model):
    question_text = models.CharField(max_length = 200)
    pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published') 

    def was_published_recently(self):
        return self.pub_date >= timezone.now() - datetime.timedelta(days=1)

    def __str__(self):
        return self.question_text

To no avail I still have this error.

I have read about pylint and ran this…

pylint --load-plugins pylint_django

Which didn’t help, even tho the github readme file says…

Prevents warnings about Django-generated attributes such as
Model.objects or Views.request.

I ran the command within my virtualenv, and yet nothing.

So any help would be great.
