To be honest, for just heroics and such I'd roll a priest, but I can't tell you whats best for your own play style. My main is a Holy Pally and I absolutely hate healing heroics because of the lack of healing variety, while I love doing hardmode ToC and just 25 man raids in general for the the same reason. Just roll what you want, both are fine healers. Since you have them both at 72 why not get them both to 80 and decide from there?

i think priests would be fun to play as disc and holy then you get a bit higher in levels, due they got alot more healing spells than a paladin has.
But paladins is faster but due you not looking to fast leveling, try out a priest:)

There is no best. Both can do just fine. Its about skill not class.

Shaman.
They level like a train. It starts slow but after 30, they cannot be stopped. For healing, they are not preemptive healers or heavily dependent on cool-downs. They are reactive or just heal spam healers with one O *!@# button.
They provide numerous buffs to any group/raid. Four totems that can be swapped around to better suite melee or casters. Bloodlust/faileroism is essential for tough fights.
They have a clear advantage when gearing up. How many classes use mail with spellpower? Just one. Being the only sham in the raid, my guild just asks if i want the SP mail drops.The best in slot are commonly not mail, but at least getting something to work with is easy.
For healing all you will need to focus on is haste and mp/5. The rest of the stats either come with better haste/mp5 gear, or don't matter as much as those two.
Shaman can main heals, but are better suited for raid heals.
