Put as many points as you can at start into stamina, then the rest into wis. This isn't one of two equal answers, it's the right one.
The question of races has two right answers: troll and ogre. Iksar is basically troll but with much, much lower stats and severely limited gear access at the high end until velious. At 60 and with torpor (which is really, really expensive, you don't just automatically get torpor when you hit 60), the troll regen bonus is pretty negligible. There's considerable debate over how valuable frontal stun immunity is at 60, and answers range from very negligible to very important.
But hitting 60 and raising the money for torpor is not easy. It's very likely, even probable, that you won't reach 60. I mean you didn't on your enchanter, right? All the way up until having torpor, it's pretty well agreed upon that racial regen > frontal stun immunity. And as a 60 shaman with torpor, you're gonna be a bad ass mofo with or without frontal stun immunity. The hard part is getting there. That's why I'd roll troll.
Farm up a bit more cash with your enchanter and twink out your shaman a bit. 5/55 rings and a good weapon are pretty game-changing from 1-34.

This really is the best advice, DrKvothe doesn't have one incorrect statement in this post. As others have stated (even as me being Ogre) Troll is best overall Shaman (Raid/Group) and Ogre is best Solo'er/Slower. Unless you have specific goals for your Shaman, should go Troll (Again even though I am a proponent of Ogre).
