Woman to Take Russert's Spot?

In all of the coverage of who will succeed Tim Russert on "Meet the Press," most of the names thrown around have been men (Brokaw, Gregory, etc.). The White House Project, a nonpartisan organization working to promote women in leadership roles, has addressed the issue of possible women successors to Russert. The article can be found here. I agree with the survey results that PBS's Gwen Ifill would be a great choice.
