You can keep your Scolas, your Dolans, your Schonbörn with the fancy pants umlaut over the “o” and all that. I’m putting every last dime of my savings on His Beatitude Moran Mor Baselios Cardinal Cleemis Catholicos.
And can’t you just smell the fear in the Curia? If only because Cleemis is the only Cardinal at the Conclave who wields a scimitar? I’m telling you all: this man is IT. The Conclave is over before it begins! Call off the dogs! No, they aren’t going to vote for Bertone–he’s a Company Man. And, no, they aren’t going to vote for Peter Turkson–that would only confirm St. Malachy’s prophecies about the last pope and then we’d all be doomed; the Cardinals aren’t stupid, you know.
I don’t care if you like Piacenza–he cannot defeat Cleemis. I don’t care if you’re koo-koo for Coccopalmerio–he cannot defeat Cleemis. It’s Cleemis, I tell you! He’s the next Pope! He’s the best-dressed Cardinal at the Conclave. Open your eyes, people!!!

The umlaut is on the first ‘O’, not the second.
Ack! Now readers won’t take me seriously! You’re evisceramating me, Anon!
You´re betting big, man, you never know where the Spirit blows, always surprising.
Thanks for the support, Jose–sorry I can’t put the tilde over your “e”.
No worries. It´s funny because in the pools, at least here is Spain, this man is not even mentioned. For mi it´s ok. I´m fond of that land. One of my best friends is from Kerala.
Let´s trust in the Paraclete.
well then ….
