python: pygooglevoice unable to login

Question

I'm trying to use pygooglevoice to send an SMS, but I can't get get authentication to work properly.

I'm using this as an example: https://github.com/jluellen/pygooglevoice/blob/master/examples/sms.py

And this is what I get:

 from googlevoice import Voice
 from googlevoice.util import input
 voice = Voice()
 user_name = "myemail"
 user_pass = "somepassword"
 voice.login(user_name, user_pass)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/googlevoice/voice.py", line 70, in login
    galx = re.search(r"name=\"GALX\"\s+value=\"(.+)\"", content).group(1)
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

Not entirely sure what I'm doing wrong...

Google has terminated their support for XMPP. Hence all the third party API's that use that to communicate with it will fail
