Oh no, he didn’t.

In a shocking new interview, former Illinois governor turned reality TV show wannabe Rod Blagojevich claims he's “blacker” than President Barack Obama.

In an article for the February issue of Esquire magazine, Blagojevich says: "I'm blacker than Barack Obama. I shined shoes. I grew up in a five-room apartment. My father had a little laundromat in a black community not far from where we lived," Blagojevich said. "I saw it all growing up."
