I heard last night that there are at least three other people from that list who are also willing to change their votes to vote for Pelosi; however, Pelosi is the one who is tell them to rethink it.

Pelosi knows that those three elected Representatives campaigned on not voting for Pelosi. In order that they don't let their districts down, Pelosi is stopping the Reps from coming forward with their changed votes. Risky but brilliant strategy.
