I'd bet on the Belgium dude, cause Europeans like electing Belgians to positions of power...makes it seem like they're being neutral.
Plus the guy's supposed to be a bit of a reformer, though not too radical.
A few South American guys are up for consideration, but it's probably too soon for the fossilized Catholic church to bring in a non-European.
If they picked an Italian, it would look like a retrenchment after selecting their first non-Italian in around 500 years. And the old German guy is too much of a psycho to win. Therefore, the Belgian seems to be the way to go.
