Because they know that "socialism" is far different than communism.  The U.S. and all western democracies are in the middle ground between unrestrained capitalism and all encompassing communism in which capitalism is regulated to one degree or another (e.g., it becomes a form of a socialist economy).  Getting stuck on the labels just confuses things.  The question is always:  How much regulation is a good idea.  The answer is always NOT "none" or "full."  The irony is that Russia went from a kleptocratic oligarchy pretending to be communist to a kleptocratic oligarchy pretending to be unrestrained capitalism.  

I find it amusing how many people throw out “isms” so freely without knowing what they are talking about these days..,

The one that everybody embraces so easily is capitalism.
