Yes. It was said already that R/D is not an option for IWD. And for a multiclass cleric, there's really no point in taking a fighter instead of a ranger. The fighter takes less XP to level up, and that's the only advantage it has. Ranger, of course, gets the extra attack/round when not using a shield (also works with two-handed weapons, for some strange reason), stealth, tracking, and druid spells.

In terms of comments on the mc-dc comparison, I'm surprised the fighting skills were that close. However, it goes to show that a dc at lvl 7 is far superior to a dc at lvl 3, if only for the extra 1/2 ApR. Otherwise, the dc lvl 3 tops out its ApR at 2.5, and the mc becomes a better warrior as soon as it hits lvl 7 ranger.
