Tea Leaves in the Windy City | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: The right wing have their group of leader, who go without mention.  There are those others who are backing away from the right wing, like Dolan and Weurl and now we have a decisive leader from the left, who not coincidentally comes from Spokane and its tradition of personal episcopal humility. It takes the latter to bring out the former - which also is a peek at Pope Francis as well. He is certainly stepping into the shoes of some and not others, and it will help him if Francis finishes Benedict's work on becoming more like the Orthodox. I would hope that this will put a stake in the heart of the curial system, but I expect someone like Burke to follow Francis and become an anti-pope pushing Roman primacy. The bumpy ride is just beginning.
