I don't think Republicans even vote for Speaker. Only the majority party gets a chance.
Not only does the whole house get to vote on the Speaker, I am pretty sure the Speaker need not be a Congress Critter at all.

You are correct. The Speaker need not even be a member of Congress. Maybe we'll get Dean!
