Exactly; NPR covered this story yesterday and the general consensus among the people they interviewed was basically, "I do sympathize with the protesters, Of course, but I'm glad they're out of Tahrir because I was tired of the traffic problems it caused."
and they're going to pin their hopes on the military which is now in bed with the MB...and this Arab Spring could easily topple Jordon and Saudi Arabia, and even cause Arab-Israelis to revolt.
this has got B.A.D. written all over it.
While not as rosy as some people thought it would be, it's not really a disaster. The same reasons that are causing the Egyptian masses to tire of the demonstrators will also cause them to not support the things you have been fearing most because they too would be bad for the economy. I think Egypt is most likely heading in the direction of Putinism, we just don't know yet who the Egyptian Putin will be.
