Betting on the new Pope?
TOP 5 FRONTRUNNERS
The frontrunner at most polls is Italy's Dionigi Tettamanzi, who is anywhere from a 9 to 2 to an 11 to 4 odds-on favorite to win when the College of Cardinals meets to pick a new leader for the Roman Catholic Church.
The next Cardinals, in order of betting, are: Francis Arinze of Nigeria, who has a 15 to 2 rating, followed by O. Rodiguez Maradiaga of Honduras, 8 to 1; Claudio Hummes of Brazil, 8 to 1, and J. Ratizinger of Germany, 29 to 1. Bettors may click on "The Papacy" icon on the Betfair site to get the current odds in graphs like stock market charts.........

There are some good links to top stories here. A worldwide network of neocons are pushing for Cardinal ??????????
There are currently 194 Senators in Rome. Somewhere around 400 AD the Roman Curia decided to rename the word Senator to Cardinal. They were all the same Roman Generals they just needed to be cool and go undercover.... that was decreed by Caesar Constintine a few years prior.....
Roman custom frowns on overt campaigning for the papacy. However covertly everyone knows all the king makers on earth are all jostling behind the scenes to see who will be the Front Man for the long line of earthly Caesars? Even the CIA, MOSSAD, MI6 and now Homeland Insecurity will want to work behind the scenes to see if they can get "THEIR MAN" to be the cool mouth piece to the world.
For obvious reasons the Senators from Rome cannnot afford a US Cardinal. Why? They would think the CIA fix was in or Wall Street bought the election. There is some pretty cool history of how the Americans (CIA) did not want the other pope (who died 33 days later) because they wanted a Western friendly papa, so the intrigues are very interesting. YA, don't suppose the CIA helped out? Do you remember President Reagan bragging we even had spies in the Vatican? Well he sure enough did.
In recent months the Roman Senators have been grandly reaching out to the Jewish community. They will desire someone to continue this because the Prophetic Stars have aligned for Israel to come central stage in the course of human and Biblical events. The powerful woman upon the famous hills sits as Queen of the Ancient Mysteries.
And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet color, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written,
MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT
Revelation 17:4,5,9,18

MUST READ. Now seems a good time to recall the circumstances of the last papal succession. Because Luciani Albini, Pope John Paul I, was almost certainly murdered, by an international network of fascists and money launderers
