I partially agree with Minigiant, the cleric had too few hp. Taking toughness at level 1 is actually a pretty good choice. It would get the cleric up to 29 hp and his healing surge value up to 7. You would need 17 con to get as many hp as you get by taking the toughness feat, which I don't think it is worth. Except if you are a infernal pack warlock that is.
The cleric in this example is going to get hit a lot, so he should get every ac/hp boost he can get. It is not as if the warlock is going to hang around...
In your example the cleric would instead of dropping be at 5 hp, and would be able to use second wind + inspiring word and use an action point to do a healing strike. He would be at 5+7+7+1d6+4? = 26 hp while the warlock probably would have kited like mad...
