There doesn't need to be an anti Bard PrC as there are anti Bard PC's. A 1st lvl Bard is ok, if you don't have a wizard in the group, or a rogue, or you are in deed of a little fighting boost or what not. A Paladin, while not going to be as over the top tough as some fighters can be, is just as useful. He is a solid fighter, can use some of his abilities to aid the paarty as well, and in emergencies can act as a weak cleric.
As far as PrC for the Paladin, I think it is fine just as a PC. Been that way for me since Unearthed Arcana, so I guess it just feels right.
Otherwise I like Shadowbane Inquisitors. You gotta love a Paladin that sneak attacks and smites.
