Sen. Rand Paul is headed north to Cleveland this weekend — but not for the pierogies.
The Kentuckian is trekking to Ohio to throw his political might behind Mike Gibbons’ bid for the competitive Republican nomination for U.S. Senate.
Mr. Paul is among a group of high-profile Republicans making moves in the 2022 midterm elections in a way that seizes the media’s attention, boosts their appeal among grassroots activists and maybe helps the party seize power in Congress.
Welcome to the early jockeying among the potential 2024 presidential contenders.
Searching for street cred with voters, the early underdogs are rushing to lift candidates across the country through their endorsements, public appearances and fundraising events.

Former President Donald Trump threw cold water Monday on the idea he is interested in becoming the next House speaker if Republicans flip control of the lower chamber in the 2022 midterm elections.
Mr. Trump said he is aware of the chatter, but said he has a good relationship with House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, the California Republican who is well-positioned to win the speaker’s gavel if the GOP takes control of the House.
“I have seen talk about that, but it is nothing that I have ever considered,” Mr. Trump said during an appearance on America’s Voices News.
Mr. Trump could be elected speaker without winning a House seat, as neither the Constitution nor the House’s rules formally require that the speaker be a member of the chamber.
Mr. Trump sounded more open to the idea in an interview earlier this month after his former adviser Steven Bannon floated the idea. --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to related stories:
