Angelina is the logical choice, but she's in her 7th year as well as 
Fred and George and I've always had the impression that Alicia and 
Katie are, too.  I do see it as rather useless to have them as 
captain for a year, but as Maria said it would be okay to have him as 
co-captain, if anything.

I see it this way, too, making him take responsibility.  It seems as 
though Harry is the one making the decisions in regards to Voldemort 
even with Dumbledore and clique around.  Everything is up to Harry.
