This is strategically speaking, based on non-money maps (Money Maps = Newbish Strategy 
) and assuming your not facing a stupid player (like me 
) but anyways, heres my views:
Terran
Terran can be fun against most newbs or those succeptible to an early medic/marine attack, but they become less viable further into the game and are usually only useful in defense or drops (which can be stopped by those of decent skill). Battlecruisers are fun, but if your using them on a non-money map, your prolly gonna lose
. Nukes can sometimes be a possiblity but often times, not likely.
(Just another thing I've noticed too, most pro replays you find don't use Terran and I don't think its just because of their 'lack of skill' with the human race
)
Zerg
Zerg have their advantages and disadvantages too (like every other race, duh). Their advantage being able to quickly produce and mobilize units. This is the part where many think: "Advantages, yeah, they can rush!" -- WRONG! This worn-out concept was made by some idiot who took advantage of their quick production on some newb (Although it can be effctive to the unsuspecting player). Zerg shine when it comes to expansions, no other race can lay expansions faster. Overlords can be good for scouting, just watch out for those pesky Protoss corsairs, coming to wipe em all out in your base. Aside from Ultralisks, (which are highly underrated, especially against Protoss) Zerg lack in life, and they can be worn down by those that know how to use splash and do hit and runs. They don't fair as well early on in the game
Protoss
Yay, big bad Protoss, fun to use if you know how to use and manage them. Based on Units, there is no better pick, however, a Protoss without sufficient resources = a Dead Protoss player. Protoss can usually put up a good fight through an entire game. Between Protoss & Zerg, (sorry Terran just don't cut it ) it comes down to who has more skill and can manage better. Protoss require a little more micromanaging skills than other races.
Well, I called it a tie between Protoss & Zerg, so I just went with preferences and chose Zerg

My favorite race would probably be zerg. Aside from being fun to play with, some untis look very cool. Like with every other race they have weaknesses and strengths. The strngth would be that they are cheap resources and massing opponents in large numbers. I find it pretty fun to mass a ton of zerglings and hydralisks at someone. In very big numbers they can shred buildings fast is what i like.

Terran is still a favorite among pro Starcraft players.

PROTOSS ALL THE WAY!!! THEY HAVE THE PHOTON CANNONS WHICH GIVES THEM AN EARLY ADVANTAGE SO THEY CAN STOP YOUR LITTLE ITTY BITTY ZERGLINGS AND HYDRAS!

My life for Auir! En Taro Adun! Protoss i admit is slow but they are the strongest if used wisely. But maybe Zerg will do.Just not Terran. Hate 'em, dont ask why.I voted Protoss.
