I have no experience with ColdFusion, but if you ask a question like whether MySQL or Postgres is better on a Postgres mailing list - we're going to say Postgres.
 
Postgres is in many, many ways vastly superior to MySQL.  However, if you are a newbie or are doing this on Win32 platform, you may still choose to use MySQL.
 
Postgres has these things that MySQL doesn't:
 
* SQL compatible date & time handling
* subselects
* stored procedures
* proper foreign keys
* proper transactions
* views
* custom types, aggregates, operators and functions
* 4 procedural languages
* ...and much, much more...
 
You haven't provided us with very much information, however...
