    Francis, on paper. They’ll come after him for being accused of ignoring child abuse allegations. His local advocates on more progressive-leaning sources here are focefully pushing that it’s a plant from the conservative side to try to keep him out of the running.

    I have no awareness either way, but he seems to be perceived as a Francis continuist, for what that’s worth.

    Which, of course, in a lifetime position with no offramp is no guarantee of what he’ll do. We’ll see, I suppose.
