In addition to Cardinal Timothy Dolan of New York that Lacey mentioned the one other American who is a longshot in the running is Cardinal Sean Patrick O'Malley of Boston.
I think that an American being chosen Pope is an extreme long shot. There are a lot of reasons not to choose an American and the only positive reason I can think of would be that they are possibly more "modern" and better able to handle the management and PR duties. Something woefully mishandled by Benedict.

Re: New Pope Elected Yet?
Black smoke - 1st vote NO POPE
Check back tomorrow! After today I think they vote twice a day, once in the morning and once in the afternoon, for a few days then if there is not a Pope they take a break to reflect.

Like they didn't all have their minds made up before they started. Is it done by majority rule?

Re: New Pope Elected Yet?
This is such a political event. You better believe that that smoke will not turn white for a few more days yet. They want to milk as much publicity out of this as they can possibly get.

Re: New Pope Elected Yet?
I guess I should care about who the next pope is...but I don't.
Someone here said that they already have their minds made up. I believe that to be so.
Whoever he is, he gets his position because God ordains it to be so. Good or bad, the signs of the times is upon us.
