Leveling an elemental shammy, now up to his mid 50s. ALL i get is +AGI gear, every.single.piece. I have not seen a piece suitable for elemental since the 15-20 range. Anyone else, or am i just cursed with bad luck?

Just bad luck; happens a lot. Last DK I leveled got nothing but spell power stuff out of the loot bags, so that's why I stopped using the random tool and just queued for specific instances.

yeah I guess you're right. It's just starting to feel like a joke at this point where as soon as i see a mail item drop, quest reward, or dungeon reward, i will always see the +agility. Whenever i see a plate item, you bet your buns it's +int.

Haha, yeah the same happened to me. And in reverse. When I was going Ele/Resto I was always getting +Agi gear. Then I was starting to miss my Enhancement so I went Enhance and all I got was Int/Spi gear. The same for dungeon drops. While I was healing, Agi drop after Agi drop would fall. I turned them down because I was enjoying heals and someone else would win the greed roll. When I went Enhance I couldn't believe it as Int/Spi gear dropped and came out of bags what seemed like every time haha.
Random truly is random. But somewhere in the game of life, I think we all have a hidden luck stat, and mine is -not- good. Like Adamsm said, too. If you're getting the bad lucks, then just queue up for specific dungeons you need the quests for or just enjoy more so you don't have to worry about getting the same crappy runs over and over again. The quests, run at least once, really do help speed up leveling and if you keep missing some from random runs, especially with loot that isn't helping, then you're better off that route.

Believe me, you CAN get +int mail out of the random loot reward bags from LFG. As Enh I can promise you it happens.
As stated higher up, the quest rewards/drops with +int will be mostly in cloth until Outland. As Ele you shouldn't be getting hit in dungeons anyway so that won't be a huge problem. Just get your butt to 58 and get to Outland - get your awesome +int mail there.

I almost never use "Random Dungeon". It's not because of the random loot (I get pretty good items sometimes), but because Random Dungeon, though it has a much shorter wait time than Specific Dungeon, often puts you in the middle of a dungeon run, causing you to miss out on a lot of the quests, and possibly a boss or two.

Before you accept it tells you how many bosses are down. You can always decline and re-enter the queue, can't you?
