| Description | Democratic Rep. Rod Blagojevich, front-runner in the race for governor of Illinois, may have raised the bar when it comes to answering the "Have you used marijuana?" test that has become a staple of American politics.
The 45-year-old politician admitted on Monday he had tried the drug twice as a young man -- but he didn't know whether he had inhaled or not. He was sure, however, that he didn't have an attack of the munchies afterward.
"I don't know if I did or not. I never liked the smell of it ... I was so inept at it I don't know whether I did or didn't (inhale)," he said in response to the same question once put to former President Bill Clinton. |
