#reading pre-labeled input and splitting into lines
posSentences = open('D:\\yes.txt', 'r')
negSentences = open('D:\\no.txt', 'r')
posSentences = re.split(r'\n', posSentences.read())
negSentences = re.split(r'\n', negSentences.read())


posFeatures = []
negFeatures = []
#http://stackoverflow.com/questions/367155/splitting-a-string-into-words-and-punctuation
#breaks up the sentences into lists of individual words (as selected
by the input mechanism) and appends 'pos' or 'neg' after each list
for i in posSentences:
posWords = re.findall(r"[\w']+|[.,!?;]", i)
posFeatures.append(posWords)

for i in negSentences:
negWords = re.findall(r"[\w']+|[.,!?;]", i)
negFeatures.append(negWords)

posFeatures / poslist is a list of lists, so you need to convert each list x to some string before concatenating a newline.

does
with open('output.txt','w') as f:

    for x in poslist:
        f.write(x+"\n")

work? (note space between ")" and "as").
