One of my best friends is an American citizen, who grew up in Philly, but whose family was from Eqypt. His grandfater was a very influential judge under Sadat. His mother and sister run a Montesori school in Egypt and I emailed him to get his, and his family's, take on the Egyptian presidential election and the Muslim Brotherhood. His brief answer follows FWIW:

It was the better of two evils. If Shafik won that would have been a direct insult to the revolution. It was a very small step in the right direction. There is a long ways to go. As it stands the military will not give any true power to the MB. The MB is not really a good thing - they are similar to the far right in the US. The majority of Egypt is rather liberal, but they could not get organized and get behind one candidate or platform so even though the majority originally voted for others (60%) it was spread thin across multiple liberal candidates. Anyways at least a small part of democracy won - here is hoping it continues.
