As an off-tank I prefer a paladin over an SK, and a warrior as primary tank. The reason for that is on raids a root and blind can not only generate aggro, but also limit the mob's reaction and darting for an enchanter. Sometimes disease cloud just doesn't cut it, and it's actually easier for a paladin to generate that initial aggro and save the cleric/offhealer a heal with a root than it is for an SK to spam disease cloud.
Both, though, are great tanks when played properly.
