Thats actually a good point. At that part of the story, anakin wasnt much more than a rogue jedi. Hell, he was in the process of shutting down the entire evil rebellion. He didnt have the capability of being more than a dangerous single person, since he didnt have the intelligence to try and take control, the connections to pull it off, or the allies to protect him from retribution.
