A book, Game Change, authored by Mark Helperin and John Heilemann claims that during the 2008 presidential campaign Reid had described Obama a “ 'light-skinned' African American 'with no Negro dialect unless he wanted to have one.” Following this incident, Reid, who also faces reelection this year, apologized for his coarse remark. President Obama accepted it. But Republicans are unwilling to forgive him. Rather they have mounted pressure on him to resign from his post.Their campaign has nothing to do with Obama. They are punishing him for his earlier remarks in which Reid had called President George Bush a liar. Besides, he had also lashed out at Alan Greenspan, calling him a hack.
Since then Republicans have been waiting for a chance to nail him down. And they got it now. They have all the ammo to toss him out from the Senate. Michael S. Steele, a Republican National Committee Chairman and a black leader, is leading the campaign to oust Reid."There is this standard where the Democrats feel that they can say these things and they can apologize when it comes from the mouths of their own," Steele said. "But if it comes from anyone else, it's racism. It's either racist or it's not. And it's inappropriate, absolutely."
