Default electric vs mechanical fuel pump

after cruising around in my contemp cobra last night i had the misfortune of breaking down on river street in downtown savannah ga. My electronic fuel pump died, after a AAA call and a 5 hour wait, flat bed showed up. The driver, extremely helpful and went out of his way to help me determine in fact it was the fuel pump. My question is what is the general thought between the 2...obviously mechanical is more reliable. I guess what im looking for is the pros and cons. thought about going back to a mechanical. before it died car was running very rich and the pump was pulsing, noise pitch going up and down...

this my 1st car that has a electric pump so i was un aware of how its supposed to behave.

thanks

scott
