The reason I didn't answer this post is that I've only played my druid to level 7, so I don't have anything particularly useful to say about druids just yet.
The one thing I've noticed about my Tauren druid compared to my Elven priest is that the druid seems to be somewhat more effective in melee combat with the staff. This is great because I actually seem a bit more mana hungry, at least at low levels, with my druid. So, if I can do the middle part (from about 75% to about 25%) of damage to a monster with my staff, I can save my mana to heal, if needed, or to be able to move on to the next comabt more quickly. That way I'm also more certain of having mana left over when the monsters run away in fear, or if I wake up more than I meant to.
Since I can't get to my priest at the moment, I have no way to do a head-to-head comparison. I don't think the weapon I'm using is significantly different than the sort of thing I found with my priest, though. I suspect that being a Tauren instead of a Night Elf is making the most significant difference here, but can't say for certain.
