Absolutely go for the interview. The worst case scenario is that you waste half a day at the interview. The positive is that you may get offered a better job because of it.
You have no obligation to an employer at all, nor do they have an obligation to you. Even if you clear your background check and drug test, they may still turn around and decide not to hire you or lay you off somewhere down the road.

Go to the interview. You don't have a solid offer yet and doing an interview doesn't hurt-just gives you options. Who knows you might end up getting a much better offer at this next interview. Options are never bad. Good luck :)

Def go to the interview. First, its always a good idea to keep practicing your interviewing skills and second, you don't even know if you got the first job yet. So this second interview might be better and give you a better offer than the first.
Go for it and Good Luck

As an Assistant Director of HR with 18 years of HR experience, my answer is "Go For It!". Absolutely go to the other job interview. You always need the interviewing experience, you don't know for sure that the first job will pan out, and the second job could turn out to be better than the first. In addition, anytime you interview you are expanding your network of "informants" - who knows what it could lead to!

Yes. Always accept all job interviews. Even if you are waiting for a call back. That call might not come and then you are back to square 1 - no job!

Go for the interview unless you've already accepted the job with the first company.

Go for the interview. There's no harm in having a backup plan in case something doesn't work out with your other job.

Well if you think you'd rather work at the first place, no, but if you are unsure, you might want to go to the interview and see if they might pay your more or give you a better position. Perhaps benefits? It couldn't hurt to have two places wanting you to work for them.

Have you accepted a written job offer? If not, keep interviewing.

If you know you have a clean background and drug free and you want the first job then No... But if you are not sure why not?
