Tex-Edit: what's wrong with this variable?

Can someone tell my why this won't work? Is there some "variable conversion"
trick I need to turn Tex-Edit's internal color "black" into the results of
the variable "backgroundColor"?

set backgroundColor to "black"

tell application "Tex-Edit"
activate
tell the front window
set background color to black -- this is OK
set background color to backgroundColor -- this is unOK
End tell
