I had the same problem and for me, the problem was with ip address which mysql listened to port 3305 on. By netstat -aon I saw:

Proto  Local Address          Foreign Address        State           PID
...
TCP    0.0.0.0:3306            0.0.0.0:0              LISTENING       884
...

So I uncommented line below in my.ini config file:

#bind-address="127.0.0.1"

then restarted mysql and problem gone!

You need to specify the server and point.

db=MySQLdb.connect(passwd="king123",db="thangs",host="hostname",port=3251,user="user")
