Ryan? This is what he said today:
“Ryan said President Barack Obama deserves to be congratulated for having “a fantastic ground game.”
“He won fair and square,” Ryan said of Obama. “He got more votes, and that’s the way our system works, and so he ought to be congratulated for that.”
Had he been at the top of the ticket, Ryan said, he would have run exactly the kind of campaign that Romney oversaw. Ryan said he and Romney “felt very good about the race we ran.””

You have to say those things. It sucks, but it is what yu have to do in realpolitik.
As far as who is our Conservative Champion, we damn near exhausted the list during this election cycle. Even Ronald Magnus could not pass the FR “True Conservative” test. No one could. Even Her Godessness Sarah has detractors.
I could have said anyone instead of Ryan (thus, the ?) and someone would have attacked.
Maybe we Conservatives need to craft a reasonable criteria, including deal breakers (no obozocare, no open borders) and deal makers (Jeffersonian principles).
At this moment we have NO ONE. The left had no one either (except an old hag whose only qualifications were to have had sex with a POTUS once), then this Kenyan barry kid made a single speech and set the course for American destruction.
I have never been a big proponent of luck as a strategy.
