Why do I have a feeling the fix was in?

| 1. I doubt George Jr. has any sway in the college of cardninals |
|
But, his movement toward ultra conservatism might have inspired the cardinals to realize that it might succeed in moving things backwards.

| 2. I thought Bush met with the Cardinals while he was over there. |
|
I can hear him now. "OK, I'm the anti-christ. You know it. I know it. Make the nazi the new pope or I start bombing. Out."

| 4. John Paul II made his trust in Cardinal Ratzinger VERY clear. |
|
Ratzinger tried to retire several times and John Paul wouldn't accept his resignation.
