If I were a Democrat in the House I would vote for Boehner. He has given them everything they asked for and at the same time has put the Republican Party in complete disarray. What more could they ask for?

The Speaker is not chosen by a majority of the Republicans. The Speaker is chosen by a majority of the House. Don’t assume that no Democrats would vote for Boenher, especially if they see the alternatives. Why would they get rid of Boehner? Any attempt to get rid of him would require the vast majority of the Republican caucus.
