THE SHI'ITES ARE GONNA GET TOUGH: Juan Cole asks: With Saddam out of the way, why make nice to the Americans?

Cole makes a good case, but I am skeptical as usual about predictions of Shi'ite unruliness. What really would've been appreciated is an answer to the question that everyone in the media is dodging: do the Shi'ites really want democracy, or just "one man, one vote, one time"?
