This isn't as crazy as you think, but it's usually reserved for losers like Jimmy Carter, George HW Bush, and John McCain (to name a few).  Alas, folks who play the game and want to win know that putting reality or results above your own path to "success" is a blunder.

I'll always remember hanging out with my conservative GF and her parents during the 2008 election cycle and when John McCain refuted that Obama was a dangerous Arab and instead said that it was important to focus on policy, they knew he was cooked then.  I asked if they believed Obama was a dangerous Arab, and they said no (in a sort of scoffing "of course I don't believe that" manner) but McCain needed to say it was true in order to win.
