White smoke at the Vatican. CNN is killing time waiting for news of who has just been chosen as the new pope and head of the Roman Catholic Church.

I defer to SNAP, which provides a list of “promising prelates” as well as a list of a “dirty dozen” cardinals they do not want to see become pope.

Update: And the winner is …

Jorge Mario Bergoglio of Argentina, archbishop of Buenos Aires and a Jesuit. His Wikipedia entry is already labeled “Pope Francis.”

Here’s hoping Pope Francis lives up to his namesake.
