Cincinnati Republican Rob Portman rides a long trail of leadership roles and endorsements from Bill Gradison to George Voinovich. With a wide financial edge and strong fundraising, he campaigns across Ohio, targeting all 88 counties, to position himself for the Senate now and a potential White House bid in 2016.
