I'd also like to know when the Orcs got so... insular. They always seemed to actually consider the other races (well, the Tauren and Trolls) allies and equals, instead of pawns.
The fight against, and victory over, the LK worked them into a frenzy. Garrosh was feeding the fire. Thrall didn't step in, because he thought that his people needed to be rallied to that level to achieve victory over the Scourge.
And now, Thrall sees that things have gone too far. He also regrets making Grom into too great a hero in Garrosh's eyes, as Grom was really a pretty savage, bloodthirsty guy throughout his life - it was only his sacrifice in the end that made him great. So, you now have Garrosh who thinks the Horde should only be comprised of the strong, with the weak pushed aside (or crushed) - that counts for allies and enemies - and basically all this chest-thumping ridiculousness totally unbecoming of a nation of people.
Many of Garrosh's proponents seem to forget that the Horde is not just an army, but a nation.

okay kiddies, i may be wrong but let me drop some knowledge on you, you are all forgetting about the half orc half ogre rexxar, i think he will be the next warchief. he is rexxar <the champion of the horde> after all. i think he'd make the perfect warchief, also hes so badass n blizz has mentioned him very little. this is just my guess though..i dont always post on wowhead...but when i do...im right.
He's not the Champion of the Horde any longer, he's the leader of the Half-Ogres in Blades Edge, and he's happy there....also, due to the fact that he's a half-breed, the orcs would not follow him.
Sorry, but there is a very low chance of him becoming the next warchief.

I honestly thought it would be Vol'jin in the beginning but part of the Dominance Offensive questline made me think it would be Lor'themar.
There was a part of it where you had to go to Silvermoon and kill a Sha. After you return the
What's in the Box?
quest to Lor'themar, he makes a speech and one of the citizens yells out that he should be the next warcheif. It would only make sense that something like that would be said but it seemed forced and out of place.
Hint, perhaps?

Hint, perhaps?
Or a
red herring
.
I think it's actually kind of cool that Blizzard has kept us wondering. This is something that could easily be spoiled due to PTR data mining and book deals. When the new book was discovered to focus on Voljin, many people were already convinced the new warchief would be him, then 5.1 hits and lots of people found new respect and admiration for Lothemar, then in 5.3 Thrall returns to join the rebellion and speaks of finding old orc allies like Saurfang. Meanwhile Sylvanas has been MIA almost entirely throughout the expansion, could she be due for a surprise appearance in 5.4?
As a Horde player, I'm loving not knowing exactly who our next leader will be until it's time.

By the time this fight is over..
The orcs will be dishonored by Garrosh' behavior
The trolls will have allied with the alliance (even temporarily)
The Blood Elves were considering joining the alliance.
No one is crazy enough to ask the trade prince.
I kinda think Blizz might have plans for Sylvanus next expac.
think the call will go out for someone who hasnt been involved in all this.
Ii've been thinking Baine would step in to lead the horde.

Zaela of the Dragonmaw has my vote. Im fine with anyone really but Vol´jin, Thrall, Lort the man Theron, Saurfang, Rexxar, Baine or Eitrigg.

So basically you dont want anyone leading the horde that's been staples for the horde for years? okay, that makes sense.

Zaela is firmly allied with Garrosh. She's outside of Orgrimmar currently training black proto-drakes.
I honestly don't see any good candidates for Warchief at the moment, save Thrall. Perhaps the Horde doesn't really need one and will instead opt for a council of leaders.

Gamon
Not likely, but
look at him
holding off Garrosh's elite guard on his own.
With his numberless corpse runs from being camped through all of vanilla, all of Burning Crusade, all of Wrath of the Lich King. When he became stronger in Cataclysm, others seeked revenge and started camping him again.
He kept training
It's all come down to this.
Gamon's time to shine.
Gamon will lead us to victory against Garrosh!
