Recommenders from all my departments?

[edost]

I have an MA (with a thesis) in PoliSci and an MA in literature (creative writing), and am now applying to PoliSci and Communications Ph.D programs. I've already decided to ask two people to write letters. One will be a communications professor who taught me as an undergrad and who later judged my PoliSci thesis, the other will be my former advisor.

Now the big question is who my third recommender will be. Would it look odd if none of my recommenders are from my other Masters, especially since it is the more recent one (though I finished them just one year apart)? Since it was a creative writing program, they didn't really get to see my research capabilities as much as the PoliSci people did.
