I can't think of anybody who's as qualified and ready to go right now as Jon Stewart. There was a period of 2-3 years just before The Daily Show when Worldwide Pants (Letterman's production company) had Stewart on a retainer, but they apparently never found the right project for him.
He's got the interviewing skills down, and could easily handle a monologue. After some of the stuff they've done at TDS, imagine what he could do with a CBS-sized production budget.

I am not really familiar with Handler. Each of the rest would be interesting - I like Poehler (but then, why not Fey?).
