From what I recall reading here; the “Speaker” does not have to be an elected Congress-critter. They could elect Newt if the juevo’s were there.

They could elect me, too, if they wanted but I doubt that'll happen. The odds that the Republicans will go outside of the House to select a speaker is zero.
