Upon examination, I do not understand what any Democrat would find of redeeming value to allow him to persist in the speakership.

The only redeeming quality of McCarthy is that he's already Speaker. Remember how much of a circus McCarthy's election was? All those rounds of voting? Well, that's going to happen all over again if he's ousted. Republicans aren't going to vote for any Democrat as Speaker and they're too divided amongst themselves to pick one of their own, if not McCarthy. And the 45-day clock is ticking until another potential government shutdown. Spending most of that time in internecine squabbles over the Speakership helps no one.
