Your comment-removing regex is a bit too greedy: it will eat anything between two comments:

In [10]: re.sub('<!--(.*)-->', '', '<!-- lala -->lu<!-- blah -->', re.M)
Out[10]: ''

fix: use the non-greedy version of *:

In [11]: re.sub('<!--(.*?)-->', '', '<!-- lala -->lu<!-- blah -->', re.M)
Out[11]: 'lu'
