holly **** batman it worked.
Well it took me a while but here is how it worked
after installing pyserial and win32api
import serial
ser = serial.Serial(6) //6 is the usb port that the arduino is plugged into
ser.write('H')//got my LED to blink
Well praised be the internet and thanks to all the people that helped them. I hope this helps guys like me when they stumble across this problem.
