Isn't it true that the House can legally elect a non-member of Congress as Speaker?  So then, in an Obama/Romney deadlock, if the GOP still had a majority of members, but not a majority of state delegations, they could just elect Romney Speaker of the House, which then makes him acting prez. if both the House and Senate are deadlocked on who president and VP are to be.


Very true.
