From my experience as a 38 pally (i have not played since the last pally fix) i have never felt inferior to other tank classes. Most pickup groups ive been in have been impressed by the pally class as a tank.
I go full dps in the beginning of every fight with marshalling cry burning all my endurance in the first 5-10 sec, ofcourse a heavy burning sorc might take aggro from time to time, but thats easily fixed with a rescue (if resisted rescued with one of the other 2 ones that can be used in no time.)
Im usually using a 2h weap while tanking. As the dps it adds generates more aggro then spamming the shield aggro skill. I prety much never use the finish aggro skill since the hammer chain dps prety much always is enough to get and hold aggro. If someone who would die in 2 hits gets aggro, throw on the mana using divine aura thingy and you got 5 sec to rescue the mob off him.
The guild group i lvl with 70% of the time uses me as a tank instead off the warrior we got, since i can pull and work better as the main tank.
