Its a very sensible reservation to have. Democracy is of course something I support, but in areas of the world that may not be as willing to support the separation of church and state, the existence of religious or non-religious minorites etc, can of course have such revolutions turn out worse then before. Revolutions don't always go in a good direction. But atleast if the people vote for tyrranical and theocratic people that'll be their choice. Without change nothing positive can happen, but you have to take the risk of the negative aswell. Hence the resevations that many people I've talked to seem to have.

This of course says nothing about how inspirational this display of people power is.
