"There is a broad assumption in the press that the outcome of the next papal election has already been determined....History suggests that colleges of cardinals appointed by one pope do not elect a carbon copy as his successor. In fact, the race is wide open, and there are deep-seated political and bureaucratic reasons to expect the next Successor of St. Peter to be a moderate." (WASHINGTON MONTHLY) The author discusses the process and issues surrounding papal succession and reasons Pope John Paul II's successor will probably be a moderate.
