Hard to pick between the two as the best female contestant on Strictly, would just give it to Jill at the moment but things could change if Kara gets to the final as she so deserves to.

By a country mile:D
Not quite sure why Jill is held up as the perfect female celeb to which all others must be compared, she was the best there had been up to that point, but we've had many excellent dancers since.
Personally I'd rate the best female celebs as:
1: Alesha
2: Rachel
3: Kara
4: Jill
5: Denise
6: Loiusa (often overlooked in these discussions, but one of the most naturally talented dancers we've seen on the show.)
7: Kelly
8: Zoe
9: Pamela
10: Lisa
Kara and Alesha make up the rest.
Kara is heading towards the top for me but will judge after the series is completed.
My all time favourite is actually Zoe Ball. If you think there is hate on the boards now or last year you should have seen her series. The hatred has since only been matched or surpassed by La Snowdon who I think was a very good ballroom dancer by the way.
Minor slanging match eruption. Rachel was too much of a bot for me, Alesha too messy in her Latin, Ali too much princessy. I love Jill but was also very very fond of Denise and that is why Zoe edges it for me as I really was all out fan of her as opposed to being fan of both Denise and Jill in series 2. Oh and Louisa woz robbed by introducing the dance off to get the Bunton in to the semi's. I is still a jellus hatah!
Kara is close to becoming the closest thing we've had to a pro on this show though, so I do rate her very highly.
I think those who think the jive was Jill's speciality should watch her samba, cha-cha and paso. Actually the only paso to ever come close to Jill's is Kara's.
Also you have the unknown factor, what would Jill's viennese waltz, argentine tango or charleston be like?
I'd also go for Darren rather than Artem !!!
I would say neither as Zoe Ball is still my all time favourite. Jill and Kara are both great too though
Also definitely Artem over Darren!:D
So I'd opt for Kara. I think the chiemistry between her an Artem is stronger too. It's palpable.
Did not include Rachel , great dancer as she was ,but she just did not have the wow factor moment for me.
I never said this hate was rational I just like to wallow in it...still
Well that's still a hypothetical argument for 2 more weeks. However I would say that of course you can still make the argument as these things are so subjective.
Winning means you are more likely to stand out, especially a few years down the line as with Jill. However, I have found it refreshing that Denise has had a few mentions on here. As someone else said she often gets overlooked on this forum but she was a bloody good dancer.
