I don't see how Snape could NOT be the DADA teacher sometimes (why else bring it up in every friggin book?) but I don't think it'll be until book 7 (he has to clear his name completely).
The thing is, after book 5, Dumblydore's got his work cut out for him finding a DADA teacher. After all, up until the fifth book, the kids didnt' know much, did they? However, lots of students have improved DRASTICALLY.
I have some odd ideas about who the new DADA teacher will be.
Kingsley (that was some quick spellwork in DD's office!)
Fleur or Krum (where'd they disappear to?)
Snape (but, like I said, not until a little later)
In fact, I see a lot of career changes here pretty soon. I think Mr. Weasley's movin' on up to the east side and will eventually get the promotion he deserves (Minister of Magic). Ol' Fudge can't stay in good standing with the wizarding community for much longer after that rather obvious boo-boo of covering up for Voldything for a solid year.
