Comment(by Viper007Bond):

 I can tell you right now we'd get a small revolt if we switched to Google
 or Yahoo hosted jQuery due to perceived (or even real) privacy concerns.

 Not to mention that WordPress already compresses it itself. It merges all
 Javascript files together and serves them as one compressed HTTP request.
 This is much better than serving it off Google or Yahoo.
