I looked through distutils-sig/ .  There were many finding the problem.  There is a solution using Setuptools 2.7 bdist_wininst - http://groups.google.com/group/distutils-sig/browse_thread/thread/6107d5c9044c3f37/4d1a53f9e8fb7d20?hl=en&lnk=gst&q=Setuptools+2.7+bdist_wininst> 

It wasn't clear on where to run things from nor did it address the missing 2.7 reference.

The reference - http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ 
has a 64 bit installer -  distribute-0.6.43.win-amd64-py2.7.exe.  It ran without error reports.

This all was to install netwokx.  That installed without error.
