Now, I hate Dailykos as much as the next communist/anarchist/revolutionary socialist/other revleft ideology, but I wanna know how to make a website like theirs in order to make a Political website like it, but with a Communist point of view instead of a liberal-conservative point of view.

They use software called Scoop (http://scoop.kuro5hin.org/).

DailyKos is a blog (online journal). Now, if you don't have much experience with that sort of thing, I'd reccomend something like Blogspot (http://www.blogsome.com/) or blogosme (http://www.blogsome.com) They're both free blogging services. Blogspot allows you to do the barebones right out of the box, and Blogsome is a little more complicated with some Wordpress type stuff, but still okay. If you have some more experience, I think a Worpress account (http://wordpress.com/) would be good.

If you'd like someone to do the design for you, check around websites, I'm sure we have some good HTML people around here.

As far as I know, blogsome accounts allow you to edit links and such without delving into HTML. I haven't worked with blogspot for years, so I don't know if it's anything like the blogspot I used for my many, short-lived attempts. So, check out both, and see which one you think is best for you.

Edit: Added last paragraph
