I could envision Hurley stepping into the white sandals. He's already a good person and I could easily see him wanting to keep evil from escaping. he doesn't seem to have any strong anchors off-island (other than cash).
Short of a left-field turn-around, I can't see Sawyer/Ford taking the reigns. Even as a cop, he's still looking out for numero uno too much.
Kate could be a twist, especially since she's in trouble in both timelines (meaning she has no reason to get off the island), that could be motivation to stick around. And she has a pretty good hart. She cared for Aaron and in her own twisted way, cared for her mother.
Sayid is lost (no pun intended), so I'm sure he's out of the running.
I'm not sure about the Kwons. Jin has a pretty shady past (mob thug) and Sun seemed to be making some shady deals with Widmore (whom I'm still unsure about as far as sides go), though on the whole the seem like decent folks. However, what would happen to the other if one of them replaced Jacob? Would the successor just give the other immortality so they could be with each other for all time?
What do y'all think?

"They are coming" I took to mean the candidates were on their way...since Sun was already there and no one else was I am going to guess she is not a candidate.
----side note---- I wonder if that was the loophole? Flocke had Ben kill Jacob at a time when all the candidates were way back in 1977....???
Jack just seems too easy as does Hurley.
Sayid, not a chance.
Jin, I don't know, perhaps.
Kate.......yep, the ultimate sacrifice for her....stuck in one place with no place to run
