I don't want to say I told them so, but....
On the surface, (arch)Bishop Salvatore Cordileone looks promising, but Niederauer looked promising, too and look how he worked out.

The Vatican is FINALLY getting about cleaning out the bishops of California and replacing them with Catholics. Gomez replaced Mahoney in Los Angeles and first Vigneron and then Cordileone at Oakland and now Cordileone at San Fransicko. I imagine as with Texas and Illinois and Wisconsin and other troubled areas, the process will continue nationally until Catholicism is restored nationally.
