In a word? NO! Two words? HELL NO!

That's why Microsoft doesn't understand they can't "win" by buying Yahoo. Once MS has it, "Yahoo" will no longer have the credibility is now has.

And when you consider that Yahoo has made more than its share of missteps along the way (claiming to own your posts on their mailing lists, just for starters), you begin to realize just how lost Microsoft is when it comes to ethics.
