I went high elf. 25 points into sta (75 extra hp at 60) to bring it to 95 and still start with 110 wisdom. Dwarves can start with 100 sta and 118 wis which is pretty cool too, but they are the ugliest of all races so... :/
With cleric it's not a huge deal either way, imo. Can be kinda hard starting out as gnome with such low wisdom, but by the time you hit 60 it shouldn't really matter. Difference between 102 and 118 base wis kinda big if you're not twinked, though.
Combined base sta/wis by race:
Dwarf: 188
High elf: 175
Halfling: 170
Erudite: 168
Human: 165
Dark elf: 163
Gnome: 152
plus the 30 creation points.
