Goblin - the best, then orc, then troll, then tauren.
He said pro's and con's, not just a list. Nub.
Goblin's have not only the increased casting speed, but their increased ability with Alchemy means you can get those yummy trinkets faster. Alchemy is damn good for any class right now frankly. Oh and they also get the best possible discount from vendor's everywhere.
Orc's have Blood Fury, and while increased spell power is great, their bonus is relitively low at 85.
Troll's get increased casting speed via Berserking, but it's a very short duration and a harsh CD, so the Goblin's speed boost is better. Troll's also get a small amount of self health regen, but it's rather insignificant.
Tauren's get a bonus to Herbalism, so you get the higher level's of the Lifeblood haste bonus faster, and that's really the only goo thing about them.
Frankly your Goblin's the best way to go. Infact I can't really think of a negitive aspect to the Goblin's for being resto, they are just that good.

No, Orcs do not have any bonuses as Resto.
Blood Fury
does not increase spell power, it increases spell damage. Blood Fury is strictly a damage cooldown.
If you're basing your decision on racials, it's pretty much going to be either Goblins or Trolls. Would you rather have a consistent 1% haste (along with some other very nice utility racials, such as the rocket jump and discounts everywhere), or a cooldown which, I believe, averages out to about 1% haste?

i am a allince res shaman (dranei and i love the over time healing thas the have)
dut if you will be horde i think troll it is the best whit the haste thas the have!
on allince we mabye we onhy dranei and dwarfy dut we can rock in raid or hc! XD
I'm sure I've seen the English language mangeled worse than this before but right now I can't recall it...
Anyway since I've never rolled an Orc (my shaman is a goblin) I wasn't sure which of the racial Blood Fury's was the shaman one. In that case the only way I would go Orc for a shaman was if you wanted to play as Enhance. I'm not sure if the extra pet damage effects the wolves or the totem summoned things, but the extra expertise and the damage cd would make them pretty damn good.

Just nitpicking here but he bonus herbalism does not get you improved lifeblood sooner, I've tried. Same for Worgen and skinning.
