Any thoughts on the new RNC and DNC Chairmen?

RNC - Newt Gingrich.  He said he'll take it if they'll have him, and I think he'd be better at that than trying to get the party back on track by actually running for office again.  He may be a little outdated and removed from politics now though.  Michael Steele is the other name I've heard.

DNC - The only name I've seen so far is Claire McCaskill, who would gladly take it in order to get her crush Obama reelected, and because she probably couldn't get reelected herself. Can't stand the woman, personally, but she knows how to campaign.

Just heard on Fox that Steele and Gingrich are rumored to actually be in talks to win Newt's endorsement for Steele, as opposed to running against each other.  Interesting.
