This is incredible -- will African Americans and the media give Reid a pass (b/c he's a Dem) ?
Your Reid Gaffe of the Week [Stephen Spruiell]
I'm going to be just a little sad when Harry Reid loses his re-election bid. What fun it's been:
Harry Reid apologizes for "light skinned" remark about Obama
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) apologized today for referring to President Barack Obama as "light skinned" and "with no Negro dialect" in private conversations during the 2008 presidential campaign.
"I deeply regret using such a poor choice of words," said Reid in a statement. "I sincerely apologize for offending any and all Americans, especially African Americans for my improper comments."
Geraghty tweets, "Good thing Harry Reid never said anything like 'we should have elected Strom Thurmond president,' or something like that."
