I too am trying to find a definitive answer as to which pool is best to mine in. Best meaning which pool will make me the most bitcoin in the quickest time, of course.

I'm considering P2P mining right now, but again don't know if it's any better.

Technically, it's all relative.

The math, over a long enough period, is all the same.

Here are a few considerations:

Pool fees: You are giving a cut of your mining to the pool operator in exchange for the services the pool provides.  (up time, support, cool interface, statistics, support, etc)
Frequency: The larger the pool, the more blocks they solve, the more payments they provide, the more people it's split with.
Variance: All pools have swings of variance.  Mathematically solving more or less blocks than they should.  In my experience, the higher the hashrate, the shorter stints with either variance.

Multipool is fine if you're more interested in mining alts and speculating. But if you just want to mine BTC on the best public pool, you really can't beat BTCGuild. Eligius and Slush are tied for a close second, IMO.
