I've tried both Affliction and Destruction in PVP, and it's nearly impossible to kill a healer unless he's completely OOM.
Sorry, no demonology tips for you, just QQing a bit about healers.

first off lol @ second post
healers are tough to kill at the moment especialy a competent one who knows how to play his class but here are a few tips
1. as demo people often forget they have more than one pet!
2. make sure trink CD is done before you start running a CC train
3 CC train:
fear into dots and all your debuffs finishing with a HoGD (do not put up immolate before the hogd) cast demon form and then immolate and at the end of the cast use felgaurd stun into a felstorm plus nuke of choice this should last long enough to get the proc from staying in hand of GD allowing you to throw down a second nuke, demon form charge into a fear into third nuke into a deathcoil, at this point instant summon your felhunter drop a last nuke and silence or interupt a cast.... should be end of game.....
if at the end of all this CC train you have not kill him it is a matter of gear and gemming/chanting correctly and so L2P noob

Lets assume the druid really does nothing and didn't prehot himself basicly he's pretending to be a mob your burst is way to little to kill.
corruption + BoD + HOGD + 3incinerates + felstorm + a few white hits from your pet. i'm not sure who you are fighting but unless he was already halfway his health and is hardly wearing any resilience i don't so how you see this as the end of the game, in best situation you forced a ns.
in reality the druid will have prehotted himself and if not (unlikely) as soon as you get him to 50% (IF you get him there) he will auto proc rejuv then during your cc chain he'll shift out of your hogd and there goes your cc train and if not he can put a full row of hots on him (hogd only prevents ppl from moving not from other things) which will nulify any burst attempt you try especially if he pops barkskin during it.
a shaman will just shock your immolate, follow it into a hex on you. (probably he would have shocked, grounded or had tremor down for your first fear to start with)
paladin will just heal himself to full during your hogd "cc" moment basicly making sure you won't even get him below 50%, freedom your hogd and instant fear your pet breaking your cc chain. then he still has bubble and he can aura your follow up silence.
priest will just run out of your hogd with their new 4p set bonus and else a shield/penance during your hogd "cc" moment also will make sure he won't go below 50% or in no real danger of dieing and he can always fear your pet basicly breaking your cc chain once again. during the stun part he can also use pain suppresion and he can inner focus to not get silenced when you pull out your felhunter. but i suppose if that startegies worked at all then it would be against priest before the patch of tomorrow (today for us)
just examples, coming from someone who has never played a healer so i'm sure they can come up with more and better strategies but the point is even i can come up with ways to survive your cc train/burst so i'm sure they can aswell then.
The problem stays the same you can't cc a healer long enough while doing enough dmg to kill him.
only way to kill a healer 1v1 is drain his mana and that's gone so it just won't happen against an equally geared/skilled healer.

I once had a fifteen minute fight with an opposing faction holy paladin as affliction. Even when he was OOM I couldn't pump out enough juice to take the %^&*er down =S

I think there may be some great advice in this pile of words, but I just cannot decipher the code enough to figure it out.
