Probably a matter of your PATH. Emacs run in GUI mode doesn't get any PATH
definitions from your .tcshrc or .cshrc. Do a 
M-! which python in emacs (same for ispell) and see if it is found.

I have my PATH (and other environment variables) for emacs set in
~/.MacOSX/environment.plist : Thsese variables are inherited by all
programs run from the Finder.
