Papabili:
PPE Agency
I prefer Schönborn of Vienna,and Scherer as 2nd vote....but it's all in Gods hands as they say there...But whomever will be the new Pontiff,it will be a job from hell in every way.
This morning,during the Holy Mass ahead of the start of the Conclave,the Cardinal Secretary of State of The Vatican,His Eminence Cardinal Sodano will read an important speech as was announced yesterday.
Holy Mass is celebrated at the Basilica at present after which the Cardibals,the 115 electables,will proceed to the Sixtine Chapel.
I think they will elect a new Pontiff within two days,thursday evening at the last,I think...

I have to admit, I really love all the secrets and the procedere around the Conclave. Many may say, this is no longer suitable in these modern times, but I guess, this is EXACTLY what makes it so special. What an old tradition! And it is so fascinating until we are getting the news around "Habemus Papam" - exciting until to the big news announcement. A Hollywood Regisseur could not have done it better.

All the best to the 115 cardinals who will begin voting in Sistine Chapel today. We shall always look at the chimney.

Ah, lunch in Rome! Anyone know what they get to eat in Conclave? I suppose if they are on some sort of semi-fast, it goes a lot faster.

Virtual Tour of Sistine Chapel
Here's a link from the Vatican website, a wonderful way to 'see' the Chapel:

Conclave begins behind closed doors, as the famous 'Extra Omnes' phrase is announced.

It's officially black smoke, so no new Pope yet.

I agree, wasn't holding out for a new Pope this evening. I might just go look up the last time they had a "first ballot Pope".
