I thought Stan was the straight man.
Stan is the average man. Matt Stone and Trey Parker, for all their immaturity, seem to have a deeper interest in the question of virtue than one would think.
Stan is morally average. He dislikes going along with Cartman's wicked schemes, but he doesn't put up a strong resistance either. He's the good German of South Park.
Cartman, of course, is evil.
Kyle is morally above-average, especially for his age. He is the only one willing to fight Cartman much of the time; he actually voices the objections that Stan merely thinks. He has a powerful conscience in regards to himself, too. His Jewish guilt in the infamous Passion episode is the best example of the second point. Poor Kyle. It's not easy being ethical.
