The Iranian Revolution Continues (To Fizzle)

Yesterday the Iranians voted their conscience by going someplace other than the polls in record numbers. According to the Telegraph, the Iranian interior ministry is reporting the voter turnout at 50.6%. I thought that in these great revolutionary states, like Iran, Cuba, the Soviet Union, were supposed to achieve voter turnout rates of 99% as a matter of course.

It's nice to see the Iranian people voting by their non-voting. Even the EU has started to take notice that the Iranian Revolution is not a revolution of the people. The less perceived popular support, the less external support and acceptance the regime will be able to fall back on.
