The Speaker of the House is always the main officer of the House. Among many important responsibilities, should something "happen" to incapacitate the President AND the Vice President, this person is the one who would be President.

Currently, it is Nancy Pelosi. When the new term begins in January sometime (I think Jan. 20?), it will be a Republican, as they "took" the House. Probable, according to political "insiders" is John Boehner. There is also a decision to be made for the Minority Leader. Probable is Nancy Pelosi, the position she held previous to becoming the first female Speaker, but there may be opposition to this.
