So what happens if a pope “goes bad”?

I know Catholics think popes are chosen by the Holy Spirit, but you only have to go back to the Middle Ages and Renaissance to find there were some pretty corrupt popes.

percentage wise, Catholics are doing great in electing the Pope....1/12th of the men that Jesus personally selected as apostles didn't make the grade...
