Have I tried it? Probably in one of my drunken stupors...

Yes I have smoked crack cocaine. But no - do I? am I an addict? - No. Yes, I've made mistakes. All I can do now is apologize and move on.

I made mistakes, I drank too much, I smoked some crack some time. What can I say? I made a mistake, I’m human.

The people are going to speak. I'm not going to have people who say, 'You can't do this, you can't do that'. I'm going to fight for the taxpayers like I always have.

I'm as clean as the days are long.

I don’t look at myself as the mayor, I look at myself as just a normal, regular person.

I do not use crack cocaine, nor am I an addict of crack cocaine.
