Trevor Loudon wrote Thursday that Sam Webb, leader of the Communist Party USA, "hailed the election of Party 'friend' Barack Obama, as the 'dawn of a new era.'”
"The Party is cock-a-hoop over Obama’s victory, seeing it as both a repudiation of the conservative agenda and an opportunity to move the United States further towards socialism," Loudon wrote.
"The Communist Party said a year ago that the 2012 elections would be the main front of the class and democratic struggle, and subsequent events have confirmed that fact," Webb wrote at the Communist People's World Tuesday.
Jim Hoft posted a screenshot of another article at the People's World celebrating Obama's victory. That article, published the day after Tuesday's election, declares "We won!"
Stewart Acuff went on to say that Communists must "act with boldness" to advance their cause and "push history forward."
Acuff also celebrated victories by Democrats at large and LGBT activists who won ballot measures legalizing gay marriage.
"We are at the dawn of a new era," Webb wrote.
The Communists are "cock-a-hoop" over Obama's victory? Good god.

Actually, well over half the country is happy....or at least relieved.... that politicians who think like you do aren't running the country this morning.
Now, explain to me why any of us should give a shit about an insignificant group of yahoos espousing a political ideology that nobody cares about anymore, except old white men who are apparently stuck in the Cold War era?
Oh, wait there are a few black guys that worry about the communists too....Allen West,
back when he had a fucking job said there were 80 commies in the House of Representatives. So...you got that going for you.
