Dan Bongino will announce something tomorrow. If he were running for the House, I'd assume he'd wait to see what Delaney was doing. He could always drop down to MD-06 if it ends up open, but it would risk any bad optics that go with that.

Republicans would still be best here with an Orman type (e.g Sobhani), IMO.

Why does Bongino keep trying?  He got really close last year but that was the best possible of circumstances.......he seems so doomed for 2016.

I mean, the Maryland GOP could run Former State Senator David Brinkley, but beyond him and maybe blank slate Lieutenant Governor Boyd Rutherford, the bench in Maryland is terrible. Bongino seems to perform okay enough for a guy who is an Allen West-endorsed candidate.

What I mean is, how do perennial candidates like Bongino get money to keep running and running and running?

Like, what does Bongino do now that he quit the Secret Service so that he can keep making money?

I think he writes books nobody reads. And speaking as a semi-prominent conservative celebrity can't be bad money, if he makes any where near the fraction that Hillary and Bill make speaking.

And being fair to Bongino, he's not some long time perennial candidate, he's only run in 2012 and 2014. Now if he runs in 2016 and loses and then goes on to run in 2018, let's have that talk.
Agreed.  He's not Jim Oberweis.
