OK, OK...

For a plain "dark horse" you could probably pick quite a few viable candidates using a few criteria:
1. Some high level experience (either a governor, senator, or general - with an outside shot for representatives, former cabinet members, big city mayors, or captains of industry)
2. Lack of high level national name recognition.
3. Ambition and some way of appealing to Republican primary voters.

People like Crist, Pawtaney, or Hagel might fit that bill.

For incredibly dark horses - Rick Warren perhaps (almost worked for Robertson in '88).  2 and 3 still apply, but the second half of #1 would just be a starting point.
