Conclave
Place your bets people.
I reckon Tettamanzi is an interesting one but all I know about Opus Dei is from Dan Brown's books and various websites.

Re: Conclave
I'll be patriotic, and go with Cormac Murphy O'Connor at 40-1, as he has a fantastic name.

Re: Conclave
Pope Pengo!
He'll have mass appeal to the under-7 age group, which will bring kids back to Church, then they'll need a lifetime of absolution for the sins they commit when they are a ten year old altar boy, giving the Church a gauranteed revenue stream for decades to come!
It's a WIN WIN situation!!

Re: Conclave
Ratzinger for Pope.
A black Pope would be shite by comparison.

Re: Conclave
Cardinal Giacomo Biffi. Clearly.
Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini as a close second. I seem to like Italian names.

Re: Conclave
I don't think anyone (here) actually cares or at least very few people do.
I was more amused by 'paddypower.com' taking bets on it :\
