Accessing core_v2_blogPost in a js file

Question

Hello, is there a way I can access core_v2_blogPost in a JS file that I am accessing like this?

#registerEndOfPageHtml('telligent.evolution.widgets.blogCreateEditPost')
<script type="text/javascript" src="$core_v2_encoding.HtmlAttributeEncode($core_v2_widget.GetFileUrl('file.js'))"></script>
#end

i would like to call core_v2_blogPost.Update() inside of file.js. but when I try to do this it says "core_v2_blogPost is not defined" (I also tried with $core_v2_blogPost)
