Yeah, but the shotgun will often also get anyone else nearby - and the people in the next two rooms... 
Oops!
In a situation where you can be sure that no one else will be hit by your shot, a shotgun is excellent (I lean toward a Mossberg pump in stainless - that marine model they make, can't remember the model.)
In situations where there may be others injured/killed by your sloppily aimed shot, not as good.
Personally I have found that in threatening situations I actually wake up fully rather quickly - it may be from the sudden dumping of a whole s___load of adrenaline into my system. Anyway, I know I've been able to go from sound asleep to hitting an approaching moving target with an M-16 in a pretty short time. :D
Anyway, using a shotgun for defense in any situation where you are NOT the only good-guy in range is akin to putting out a single birthday candle with a garden hose. There is a good chance of hosing down the cake, too.
