The Protoss basically seem like a religious monarchy. The Zerg simply don't fit into politics; they're more like insects in the way they "swarm". Trying to impose a political organisation to them doesn't work. And the Terran Dominion seems like a military dictatorship with a free market economy.
Insect colonies are probably the most organized things in nature. Radical expansionist socialism, also known as the Soviet Union, fits them pretty well. The Terran are an empire ruled by Mengsk, so they would be just that - imperialist, or as you said, military dictatorship. Protoss are conservative to the point of being reactionary; I mean, they buried Colossi underground and decommissioned motherships because they were deemed "too destructive."
