Looking in cgi.py, it's a FieldStorage instance. You'll need to get the *value* from that field storage (i.e. fs.value) before attempting to store it. You can, I believe, define a conversion using a validator object in your controllers.py module. I'm too new to TG to give you much more help than that, but hopefully it will move you forward somewhat.
