THE ROBERT W. WHITAKER ARCHIVE

LATEST FROM THE PAPAL ELECTION RECOUNT | 2005-05-04

I would like my supporters to know that I have not yet conceded the election of that other guy as Pope. When a person refuses to concede in American politics, it leads to a great deal of ill-will.

I am proud to announce that my opponent, the present Pope, has not said a word about my refusal to concede. Neither has the media.

They are being real sports about the whole thing.

As to my campaign manager, who demanded a recount, he is being treated very well.

They are giving him solid food now.

What's all the fuss about wanting to be pope, Bob? You're not even Catholic for Pete's sake!

You mean I'm supposed to make sense in an election year?
