Joy Behar leaving 'The View': Who should replace her

With Joy Behar leaving "The View" after 16 years this May -- AKA the biggest cast departure since Meredith Vieira ankled in 2006, unless you count Rosie O, which I certainly do  -- it is now time to officially shake out the dust. Put some life into this kaffeeklatsch!

Of course I have suggestions who to replace her with. You'll have to decide how facetious they are, but there is gold in this list, mark my words. Also, you're going to need replacements sooner or later. After all, Barbara could get sick again (I'm wondering if she ever had the mumps as a child?) There are rumors -- by the way, there always are rumors; this is TV -- that one or another cast member may also be announcing shortly that they too must "finish that play they've been writing..." (I wonder what Joy's play is about, BTW?)
