If you want to dual him, perhaps you can dual him to a thief. You'll loose out a little with combat ability, but thieves level the quickest so you'll get your cleric spells back faster. Furthermore, you can cast spells like Find Traps which can help you out a lot. And I think that if you cast sanctuary you can keep on backstabbing. A cleric could be as useful as a fighter if you dual it and use it's skill appropriately in your new class. The cleric's magical abilites has something to offer any class. Just ask my cleric/mage that can cast silence while vocalizing himself or sanctuary when things get heated as well as being able to cast hold person w/o wasting a 3rd level mage spell spot. And can breach/spell strike followed by a miscast magic...ok, I'll stop now...
