Let's be real here. I love cows. You love cows, too. You say you don't love cows? Well, you should, for they have gone udder-appreciated for far too long.

Taurens are an asset, although many people do not seem to realize it. When you wipe in a dungeon or raid, you can always expect to see a helpful Tauren Shaman Ankh up to resurrect the party, saving valuabull run back time.
Having a bad day? A Tauren with a clever name (such as a Druid named Bullshift) will bring a smile to your face. They may have a limited class selection, but their Warriors are legendairy tanks, and they're the only people to have access to the "Rebirth" spell (better known on Horde side as Cattle Res).
They may stand around and graze a lot, but Mulgore is a nice peaceful area in an otherwise dull and dangerous central Kalimdor landscape. They may be a bit slow on the uptake at times, but they're kind and welcoming.
Let us also not forget Thunder Bluff is the closest major city to Silithus with the impending release date of "When It's Ready" of AQ40. So make no moosteak, and don't undervalue the folks who are part of a balanced breakfast.
