Jay Marvin

In this edition of Weekly Winners & Losers, we get some losers who finally come to terms with that fact that they are, well, losers. Also some losers get to be winners by simply being allowed to play the game.  So check in with Wally Edge for this week's Weekly Winners and Losers. When you're done it will make lovely wrapping paper for Dad this weekend! Cuz Dad's a winner every day of the week.

Wally can't resist responding to the latest high jinks from Jared Polis. So stop us if you've heard this one: A guy walks into a radio station with a chip on his shoulder....    

Second Congressional District Democratic candidate Jared Polis came unannounced Wednesday to progressive talk radio station KKZN-AM to ask for a more advantageous interview time on Jay Marvin's talk show.

According to Marvin, who related the story on his radio show today on 760 AM, a Polis campaign worker asked in an email why Polis couldn't be interviewed at 8 a.m. -- "drive time" -- instead of 9 a.m.

Polis also questioned why Marvin planned to devoting two hours of his show to discussing a new study showing Colorado with the highest increase of impoverished children of any state in the nation, Marvin said.

Polis manager Robert Becker took issue with Marvin playing up the incident, saying the show featured a "known Fitz-Gerald supporter" and that talk radio in general was "meant to shock."

"There's no news here," Becker told a PolitickerCO reporter.
