Personally, i dont think Palps cares who wins out of Ani and Dooku, and heres why...real simple.
Whoever wins is obviously better, hence Palps is better off WITH them. I think he'd like Ani to win simply because of his youth, but if Dooku were to win, i think he'd be happy just the same. Just how he wanted Luke to take Vaders place, but everytime Vader did a good move, he would laugh, knowing that if Vader won...he wouldnt really lose anything, Luke is just younger.

Very well put...
I think its good how in episode 1 and 2, the rebellion is seen as the bad guys, and both palpatine and dooku make sure that systems which turn against the republic are seen as bad guys and subsequently defeated. Then all of a sudden in episode 3-4, the rebels are seen as the good guys, but the members of the old republic remember the clone wars and the crimes committed by the early rebellion, and therefore they are against the rebels when it comes to episode 3 and 4
it's clever how palpatine knew that declaring himself the emperor would cause a popular rebellion, so he orchestrated the rebellions against the republic in episodes 1 and 2 to make sure that the popular opinion of the people of the repubic would be that the rebels are the bad guys. Then palpy becomes emperor and he has loads of support to fight against the rebels. And he gets a massive army to support him as well.
He's one clever guy
i think the whole dookoo-sideous,clonetroopers ......wait stop me if you heard this one before but is the reason the clonetrooper says were out of missiles to obi and ani upon being ordered to destroy dookoo a lie?
are they programmed not to kill dookoo
i think the whole dookoo in with sideous and all the stuff in episode 2 regarding their ties is a mess!
has anyone ever thought that dooku was using the kidnapping as a way to get rid of his master and take the helm of the sith master? I mean isnt it sith nature to want to take out thier masters. hell, even vader wanted palps in ep. 5 when he tried talking his son into joining him in taking out the old man.

well they wouldnt be much of a sith if they were always loyal and were not hungry for more power, or if they were unwilling to use deciet to get to the top.
Remember when Ani chops off Dookus hands and Palpatne says kill him, do it! I thought the look on Dookus face was not the fact he was about to die, but the fact Palpatine betrayed him. I do beleive Dooku new who Palpatine was. And remember like the Jedi the Sith can see into the future. Remmber what Sidious told Grievous, "Soon I will have a new apprentice, one far younger and more poweful. So the kidnapping was to a) get rid of Dooku and b) lure Ani that bit more to the Dark side.
I think.
