Most people prefer SKs, I prefer Paladins. Their utility is more useful and they have more of it. They don't have an auto "mob never stops attacking me ever" button like SKs do but it's still very easy to hold aggro and you get more tools to do other things like pull.
Edit regarding races: SKs get a much better choice of races, but DE isn't one of them. A dwarf paladin is superior to a DE sk when it comes to stats. Yes, str will be an issue, and a full set of small bronze alone will likely encumber you unless you decide to equip a lot of str gear. The biggest advantage in SK's favor is that they can be ogres.
