I would side with House, because of his "Get it done" attitude and his ideals of progressing mankind, but I dislike his ignorant and narcissistic opinion on the wastelanders. House has plenty of military power that is hidden beneath Fortification Hill, so I am not concerned with him being overrun- provided his bots are upgraded. I was disgusted by the Legions' cruelty and the NCR seemed to be too corrupt and pathetic to deserve my help. The boomers are my second choice, because of their self sufficient location, but if not convinced to open up to the world outside, they WILL die off, either by firepower, or inbreeding. BOS is not the noble cause it was in Fallout 3, so i didn't like their negative isolationist behavior, or their greedy acquisition of technology. The fact that they don't try and further technological advancement (you can talk to veronica about this) and instead just sit on a stockpile of old-world tech means that like the boomers, they will die out. Followers of the Apocalypse are nothing more than a charity organization, so i don't expect them to be around much longer- it's just not the nature of man to be kind and helpful, especially in the apocalypse. I haven't messed around with the Kings too much, but from what I can tell they don't do anything that is unique or special that anybody else in the wasteland could do. The plan Benny has (or had), is a mixed blessing. I would have loved if I could have done this without killing House. Maybe if you could set up your own faction elsewhere, like in Goodsprings, or overthrow the Fiends and set up a free and progressive City-State. Finally, the Fiends and Powder Gangers are short-lived, uneducated, and hostile to all. An alliance with them is out of the question. Oh, and I almost forgot- UTOBITHA! Whats not to love? They are funny, deadly, and out of the way, so I think they have a good future of amusing radio broadcasts to come, at least in my gameplay.
