Kerry veep choice may come next week

Source: Edwards, Gephardt, Vilsack on list

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen. John Kerry may reveal his choice for running mate early next week, a Democratic source said Thursday.

The Democratic presidential hopeful's campaign has asked at least three Democrats on his short list for the job of vice president for detailed contact information and told each to be ready "as early as Tuesday" to join the senator from Massachusetts for campaign events and a fund-raiser next Thursday or Friday, the source said.

Known to have been contacted are Sen. John Edwards of North Carolina, Rep. Richard Gephardt of Missouri and Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack, though others may have also been contacted, too, the source said.

The Kerry campaign has a staff of 12 to 15 people ready to work for a running mate, including a chief of staff and communications director, Democratic sources said.

As of Wednesday, the campaign said it had raised more than $175 million -- $100 million of that from individual donations of $100 or less. More than $30 million was raised in June alone.

That represents the most money ever raised by any challenger, Democrat or Republican. And, with the exception of President Bush, it's the most money any presidential candidate has ever raised, the campaign said.
