WHOA! Gingrich: 'Odds Are 2 Out of 3' Nancy Pelosi Will Be Speaker

Democrats need to flip two dozens seats in the House during the Nov. 6 midterm elections in order to take control of the lower chamber.

Should the Democrats win, Gingrich said he's very confident that Pelosi, who previously served as speaker from 2007 to 2011, will get the speaker's gavel back, citing her long career, connections, and fundraising prowess.

But Gingrich did acknowledge the possibility of a "blow up."

Rep. Tim Ryan, D-Ohio, is weighing another challenge to Pelosi's leadership, and Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., said he would run for speaker if Pelosi does not.

At least 11 Democratic incumbents, and dozens of candidates have said they oppose Pelosi for speaker, according to an NBC News tally.
