I am hosting the new game Partners Back in Time and will be playing as an observer race. Therefore, I thought that I would ask what everyone thinks is the perfect observer race? I have some ideas of my own but wanted to know what other people out there would suggest.

I've been running observers in at least 5 games. It does depend on what you want to do.
If you're going to collect territory information (especially for generating maps in a utility a JOAT is probably your best bet with the intrinsic pen-scan. You can deploy the scouts immediately and then sit back and research Electronics.
If you want to track ship designs then a WM is probably best. The "Mad Scientists" in the Rabid_Weasels_In_A_Box are a variety of this.
I've also used an SS race with NAS once so as to be less noticable about the galaxy. Not as fast as the JOAT really, and you can't see ship designs.
And, of course, you pretty much design a one-world-wonder race. Minerals aren't that important, but you'll still need Germ for the factories. The JOAT is good here since the extra planet size will give you a larger resource pool as well.
