Snice there's been some speculation again on the new DADA teacher, 
I'de like to put in this post all of the possibilities. All we know 
is that she's going to be female. Here goes. 

Arabella Figg --> This way we get to know her. JKR said we'de get to 
know more/all about her. There's nothing you can say against het 
becomeing the new DADA teacher. 

Molly Weasley --> This way Molly can also earn some extra cash for 
the family, also in case Arthus is the one to get sacked on grounds 
of suspicion of conspiracy they at least have an income. This would 
be funny, and handy, but annoying for the trio, because they wouldn't 
be able to sneak around very well, now would they? That could be 
either a point against or for Molly being the new teacher. 

Fleur Delacour --> She said she would be applying for a job at 
Hogwarts. Could be she'd be an assistant teacher, because she's so 
young. Nothing against this theory except she's so young. 

Witches Harry meets the first time he's in the Leaky Cauldron --> A 
few were female. We've met them. Not much for, or against (except 
that they don't seen so wonderful, and what a pitty it would be not 
to have an interesting DADA teacher, but then again, maybe they are 
interesting and we don't know it)

Mrs. Lestrange --> Polyjuice again? Aging potion? Some other mode of 
diguise? Already done, but it would be interesting. We would find out 
all about her. 

Narcissa Malfoy --> Now this would be funny. How would Snape react? A 
DE's wife teaches the job he supposedly "wants". But not very 
probable Narcissa would want this, she's too stuck up for it. 

Madame Maxime --> The thing for is: she's close to h=Hagrid and she 
can help in the war. But the point against it is that she has to be 
at Beauxbatons, kind of. 

The witch who says something in GoF when the dark Mark was shot up in 
the air (some speculate this to be Arabella Figg) --> She works at 
the minstry, she seems pretty cool as she defended Harry and 
Hermione. She could be a link to the MoM also. 

A female professor who has some DA experience, that we don't know 
about already at Hogwarts --> Prof. Sinistra? This is a long shot. 

Someone not introduced to us yet.  

And those are all of the possibilities. I myself think it's either 
going to be one of the top three, madam Maxime, or the "GoF witch". 
Best bet or Arabella Figg though. Ciao,
