Druids and warriors are both fine. Paladins have a small edge over either at the moment.

lol ^^^ I think several more nerfs to the fun are in order to bring prot paladins in line with others.

Paladins are just the best tbh. Warriors need to use a GCD to apply Thunderclap and Demo shout, Paladins get that passively. Paladins can block every single attack, 100% of the time. Not to mention they have better EH scaling than warriors. Edit: Forgot to mention that when you kill a Paladin, they don't die.
For bosses, I'd say Warriors probably have a slight edge over druids - due to the raid damage bonus from sunders. But that's just my opinion, my guild doesn't roll with a Feral tank so I can't give any logs/parses to back it up.
Blizz have made Paladins boring as hell to combat this, thankfully!
Correction: Blizz made Paladin's cooldowns terrible at best to combat this.
At least Paladin suck at aoe ta-
Its pretty much this list for tanking:
1) Paladin
2) Everything else.
The line between them is WAY shorter than it used to be though.

I disagree. Paladins have perfectly good survival cooldowns.

If you're looking for a pure raid boss tank, druids are actually amazing lately. Don't have the same raid functionality as paladins, but they have a LOT more health and generally more armour too, in exchange for a bit less mitigation. No Ardent Defender admittedly, but in terms of never going down, druids do very well. Prot warriors don't really excel at anything anymore, which is really my main issue with the class. Paladins do everything well, druids are damn hard to kill (and excellent for two target fights), warriors and DKs really lack that something to set them apart... they're not bad, just ehhh.
