under the rules of the Vatican i believe that once the pope has passed, all the Cardinals from around the world gather in Vatican City. there they pretty much deliberate for between 15-20 days on choosing the new pope.
i really dont see anything wrong here. he's THAT close to death that its pretty much known that he's going to die. RUMORS are just RUMORS....someone tells 10 people something, who tell 10 other people something, then the media gets ahold of it and each station wants to be the first to report something....so they report before they have the facts. its how the media works....you report, then find your facts.
