lanny I am tempted to agree with you. Rock while he is very funny, is only funny toa select crowd. And that crowd is not the aging, white, (you mentioned Jewish?), crowd that watches and is in attendence at the Oscars. Now by no means am I saying that Rock isn't funny, but much like Conan O'Brian he is funny to a select audience, and I am unsure as to how well he can pull off being funny in different situations. Personally I have the feeling he is going to be given the cue-card jokes just like every single host that has been there for better or for worse.
