You have a couple of options:
1) Create a custom time job to kick off the workflow at the specified time
2) Create a Visual Studio workflow which loops around while delaying for 1 day (Can calculate the right amount of time)
3) In SharePoint Designer you can hack this by having a workflow which starts when the item is changed and does the
following:
* Add 1 day to today
* Pause until that day
* Pause for 23 hours
* Does the wanted processing
* Changes the item (This will cause a new instance of the workflow to start)

To clarify a little, what I am trying to do is have a workflow kick off
nightly independent of any item on the list. If certain conditions are true,
send out an email. I didn't want it to be tied to a particular item.
All instances of a SharePoint Workflow has to be tied to a specific item in a list/doclib
If you'll only use SPD then you can create a dummy list for use with the workflow with only one item and then use the
method 3 I described
