It just depends on your playstyle.
I was leveling my shaman Enhance in the 40s, even tried Elemental, and just could not get into it. I like my paladin (main) better for melee DPS, and my hunter (80), better for ranged. But then I specced Resto, and love it. I've healed on the paladin before, as well as on druids and priests, but I just love the way the resto shaman plays.
Not every spec of every class is right for everyone.
That said, don't listen to what people say about one class being 'worth it' or not. I've tanked with my druid, paladin and warrior, and they are all fine tanking classes- yet everyone says some are OP or underpowered.
Pick a class by how much you like it, not what other people say about it.

I love my shaman. So much fun, and so rewarding.
My first 80 was my troll hunter, whom I loved. He does awesome DPS in 5-mans and raids. But I only log on him now to transmute gems lol.
I now consider my shammy to be my main, and he has arguably more survivability in world pvp than my hunter (shield + defensive abilities + totems).
I levelled as elemental, then dual-specced as resto.
Elemental is fun, especially when you proc lightning overload. PEWPEWPEW!
Lava Burst is awesome in pvp, especially on clothies and leather-wearers.
Flying around Storm Peaks and finding an alliance AFK on a mountain = Thunderstorm time!
Resto is a ball of fun, very easy in 5-mans. Especially in H HoR when you are tucked in a corner spamming chain heal.
I can't speak for Enhancement spec, but I can tell you:
Shaman = fun. You will not regret levelling one.
Just keep in mind that we are not designed as pure dps (though we have our moments of OPness). We are a utility class, that buff our party members.
