title: AttributeError: 'Request' object has no attribute 'method'
body: <p>I am getting a bizarre AttributeError: 'Request' object has no attribute 'method'
  Here is the original code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>class ModularSpider(CrawlSpider):
      name = 'modular_spider'
      allowed_domains = ['fatsecret.com']
      login_url = 'https://www.fatsecret.com/Auth.aspx?pa=s'
      start_urls = ['http://www.fatsecret.com/member/dorindam59']
  
      rules = [
      # main rule - process members page
          Rule(
              LinkExtractor(
                  allow='member\/[^\/\?]+$',
                  deny='inweb'  # deny my own user
              ),
              follow=True,
              callback='schedule'
          ),
      ]
  
      def schedule(self, response):
          print 10 * "$", response.url
          import pdb
          pdb.set_trace()
          r = Request(url=response.url
                      # callback=users.parse_user,
                      # dont_filter=True,
                      # priority=1
                      )
          print 10 * "END"
          print r
          return
  
  ... (code continues)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and here are some investigation I have made</p>
  
  <pre><code>&gt; /Users/thalesfc/Envs/inweb/lib/python2.7/site-packages/scrapy/http/response/__init__.py(34)_get_url()

  cls = &lt;class 'scrapy.http.request.Request'&gt;

  (Pdb) object.__new__(cls)

  <p>I know maybe I just made some basic mistake, but could not find something related here or on StackOverflow.</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>PS: I am running scrapy version 1.0.3</li>
  <li>PS2: I already tried reinstalling scrapy</li>
  <li>PS3: When I open a normal ipython, I can create a Request without problem :p</li>
  </ul>
