.strip() only removes text from the beginning and end of the string.
eg:
>>> myStr = 'my words are what I want to strip'
>>> print myStr.strip('my')
words are what I want to strip
You can use .replace() to be more general.
>>> myStr = 'I want to strip my words'
>>> print myStr.replace('my', '')
I want to strip words
