Personally I say resto. But thats cause thats my favorite spec. But never under estimate a skilled Elemental shaman, they can make alot of people lives living hell if they know what they are doing. Not saying a resto can't, but a skilled elemental can be tops in large group situations.

There are several comps for both specs. Go with what you'd enjoy. Generally, healers are in demand over DPS, but not always.

Resto if you like to heal in PVP. I think it's a very subjective choice. I personally L O V E healing in pvp, nothing gives me more satisfaction than a nicely timed Greater Healing Wave crit on a 10% hp warrior. I just love to think they are saying in their /bg chat "We lost, they have a good healer" or "OMFG STOP THE HEALER".
That said, consider that -sadly- Restoration shamans are probably the healing class with less "punch" in pvp: still quite squishy (unlike paladins), no amazing escape mechanism (druids), no amazing healing cooldowns (priests, druids, paladins). You do get nice ranged interrupts, tremor totem, grounding totem, and heroism/bloodlust.
I'm still very unsure what I'm going to play in cataclysm.
