That was the beauty of the Joker in this movie. He didn't just leave you with an impossible choice, he made it impossible for you to know if the choice you were making was even the one you meant to make, which is why I think it's a valid question about who would have been blown up. Personally, I think they're equally likely, and I'm kind of glad we didn't find out.

To add on, Spoiler: I don't think his goal was to kill Dent at all. Whether or not Rachel was suppose to die, I don't know (but probably so). I think his goal was to keep Dent alive for the specific purpose of showing Gotham and Batman that even the best people can be turned into a villain. They talked about this in the end when Batman was saying that the Joker can't win. If Gotham saw their hero turn bad, then there is no more hope for the city, etc. etc.
