since i actually like gambits (and the queen's gambit is not a "real" gambit) i'm going to vote for KG.
(on a side note: i've played the queen's gambit with decent success. i've recently tried the king's gambit and got slaughtered a few times - fun to play but can be quite difficult.)
The Queen's gambit is much stronger than the king's so it takes my vote. I don't play the white side of either opening though.
The QG should never happen ... 1.d4 f5 2.e4 ... Staunton Gambit :).

I like both, although there are a couple problems with king safety that you don't have to worry about with QG. QG can also be very positional, which I prefer. My vote goes to the Queen's Gambit

White has to fight hard for equality in the Staunton if black knows what he is doing, although from a purely theoretical standpoint it is probably better than the KG.
QG >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> KG
True Story.

I heard the queen's gambit is not a true gambit, as for mines, King's gambit
And the Queen's gambit is not going to happen, because 1. d4 nf6! and so it won't happen.

King's Gambit <3 And as a dutch player, i don't think that white has to fight hard for equality in the Staunton. Black has to give the pawn back anyway, and imo it just a pretty even position! But that's just my opinion :P
