Fifth Congressional District Democratic candidate Hal Bidlack is rolling out some big names for a fundraiser Friday evening in Denver.

U.S. Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), former presidential candidate and retired Gen. Wesley Clark, former U.S. Sen. Max Cleland (D-Ga.), Colorado Gov. Bill Ritter, U.S. Sen. Ken Salazar (D-Denver), former U.S. Sen. Gary Hart (D-Colo.), and the entire Colorado Democratic Congressional delegation are on the host committee for the Bidlack fundraiser, scheduled for 5-7 p.m. Friday at the Patton Boggs Law Firm in Denver.

CO-6 is all the rage in a sloooow news week, producing winners and a loser; and a general mishap with his tongue pushes a General into the losers' ranks. So check in with Wally Edge for Weekly Winners & Losers. You won't want to miss the fireworks.

In an interview with Aaron Harber, U.S. Sen. Ken Salazar (D-Denver) listed Arizona Gov. Janet Napolitano, Gen. Wesley Clark, and New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson as potential Democratic vice-presidential candidates, PoliticsWest is reporting.

Salazar also said he would accept the VP nomination if presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama offers it to him, PoliticsWest reported -- though he added, "I don’t spend a lot of time thinking about it."

The interview was taped on Monday and will soon be posted online at the Web site of Harber's  television show “Senate In Balance.”
