This question has been troubling me for quite some time. I have read several threads that regard Palpatine. It is quite clear that a vast majority of the people here hate him. They say Yoda and Mace owned them. They make it sound as if the fight was truly in the favor of the Jedi and Palpatine is easily beaten.
So...
1. If they owned Palpatine, why did he continue to live?
2. If they were better than Palpatine, why didn't they figure out his plot?
3. If they defeated Palpatine, why was the Empire still around?
4. If everyone is so damn better than Palpatine, why in the HELL did he takeover the galaxy when Revan sure as hell didn't do it and neither did Malak or Ragnos or blah blah blah?
Mr. Bullets is so right. Also, Yoda was a pussy, he ran away from a fight with Sidious he could've won to go into exile. Frankly, the editing in the recent movie wasn't "quite" finished.

Yoda fled because if he returned, Palpatine would have already surrounded himself with all available troops and security. He had the element of surprise once, and only once. It says so in the novelization of ROTS.

and he need to help train luke
i also think having 2 jedi masters traing luke was a good idea espically during the times they were facing. if somthin wuld happen to either one of them, and it somthing did happen, the other wuld step in and continue the training

Windu would've killed him if Anakin hadn't been an idiot and everyone else already explained why yoda didn't get him. But there's no doubt in my mind that Palpatine is the strongest Sith Lord ever not just in force power but in his witts and instinct.
