Hi jasamcarl mate!
I don't think you can underestimate the use of better hit points; better BAB; better AC (?) and better saving throws.
However, for this discussion I want to concentrate upon spellcasting prowess alone.
Well I think there is a difference between overpowered and more powerful...the cleric class is certainly 'more powerful' than the others, whether its 'overpowered' is debatable.

Yes a cleric has decent BAB, hp, AC from armor etc, but those benefits rarely see use if the cleric is being played efficiently or are there simply to keep him alive as a buffer/healer.
