That is bad misinformation.  For groups 55+, the composition usually is 2 paladins, 1 priest, mage and rogue.  Very rarely do i pair with warrior's anymore.  Paladin's are the ultimate utility class.  You need a tank, Paladin at your service.  How bout a healer, again Paladin at your service.  How bout secondary healer, yep Paladin at your service.  Off tank, again Paladin at your service.  Many parties will not go into an instance without a Pally and sometimes Pallies are given preference.  Granted we do have the best dps, warriors, mages, and rogues take the cake on that one, but, but, but as far as survivability goes, no class even compares to us.  So who usually is the last man standing in an instance, the Pally.  Who is rezzing everybody when the party wipes, the Pally.  Pally's properly played are one of the best classes in the game.

If the Pally is alive when the rest of the party is dead, you have failed your job as a tank, and miserably. The tank(s) should be the FIRST to go down IF Things Go Wrong™, not the last.

I would say that the Pally can't hold aggro as well as a well-played Warrior, but I'll let Tal speak for that, since I've never played a Paladin, much less any other kind of Alliance scum :)

EDIT: And I would say Druids are the ultimate utility class, not Paladins. They can do minor tanking, minor DD, and excellent healing.
