Except NBC gave Leno 2 YEARS to bring his ratings up to compete with Letterman, and they only gave Conan 8 months before giving him the boot. Which is why everyone is like "Uh.. he didn't even get a chance to build an audience or anything.."
And then like others have said, the lead-in to his show was pretty bad because of Leno, and it didn't set him up for a very big audience to begin with.
