and she's disarmingly funny, a razor sharp wit and intelligence. Imagine what she could do with a comedy script. I think it would slant a bit more to the political, which would be great.

Honestly, I don't think he can be replaced. Jon Stewart *is* the Daily Show. I'm afraid anyone else (no matter how talented) will just end up being a huge disappointment.

Hope I'm wrong....
