U.S. Sen. David Vitter has lined up a hefty list of Louisiana's current and former members of Congress to help him with a fundraiser next week.

The list of support for Vitter's 2010 re-election bid could help Vitter toss aside speculation he would have trouble maintaining support from Republican Party leaders after his involvement in a prostitution scandal.

Headlining the Washington, D.C., fundraiser is Gov. Bobby Jindal. Listed as co-chairs of the event, called "Mardi Gras in December," are all the Republican members of Louisiana's congressional delegation and six former GOP congressmen from Louisiana.

Also on the co-chair list released Thursday by Vitter's spokesman is Democratic former U.S. Sen. J. Bennett Johnston.
