Will there ever be a conservative Speaker?

What’s gone wrong? Many conservatives don’t want whip positions, which require them to win votes for legislation they disapprove of. No conservative has seriously tried to lay the kind of groundwork Gingrich once did.
The conservatives who dare to challenge the leadership, but do so at the last minute and with no real strategy, only mark themselves as people the establishment can blackball from key committee assignments. All this makes conservatives even weaker than before.

Republicans could have the majority for quite some time. It would be nice, if conservatives could figure out how to get a piece of the action.
