This should be the key to answer the original question. Is "No! No! No!" a single emphasized entity or three individual items that just happen to be side by side? If you were using a yellow background, would you like to see the spaces yellow or not?
In this particular case, it's probably open to interpretation, although I think a single thing is better. In other cases it's much more clear:
Code:
"Excuse me, but that wasn’t Sons of the Dessert"
"Sons of the Desert" is a title, so this should be:
Code:
"Excuse me, but that <*>wasn’t</*> <*>Sons of the Dessert</*>"
(use whatever you want for <*>: <i>, <em>, <span class="title">...)
