python使用正则获取html中的时间

Question

想做一个爬虫，使用BeautifulSoup假使获取以下内容：

<div class="authi">
<img class="authicn vm" id="" src="static/image/common/online_member.gif" />
<em id="">发表于 <span title="2013-4-2 08:30:11">4&nbsp;天前</span></em>
<span class="pipe">|</span><a href=>倒序浏览</a>
<div style="float:right;position:relative;top:-6px;"><ul>
<li style="float: left; width: 130px; height: 24px;"><wb:follow-button uid="" type="gray_2" width="136" height="24"></wb:follow-button></li>
<li style=" float:left; width: 160px; height: 24px;"></li>
</ul></div></div>

如何获取以上内容中的2013-4-2 08:30:11这个时间呢？
我试着写了一个

re.compile('^20\d{2}-\d+-\d+\s\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}')

可是这个在使用的时候不能匹配到时间？如何解决？谢谢！
