Middle classes are a nuisance in a revolution. They bring their conservative and "pro-stability" (I went back and re-read what Aristotle had written about the middle class in "The Politics") values with them. In Egypt, they will clash with the working classes and peasants and will resist all radical impulses. Just yesterday, the middle classes and their spokespersons (like Wael Ghonem) were strongly arguing against leaving the square and marching toward the presidential palace. The middle classes have either to step aside or let the revolutionary do their thing, and they can just eat pop corn.
