I agree that its too early to resign, especially until the CV attempt has played itself out a little more. But still, toppling Plako would require beating him at the tactical level, and he's shown himself pretty sharp at warfare in the past hasn't he?
I do like the idea of Commodore forcing Plako's hand to intervene with the culture victory, and then smash him with everything he's got. Does Civ 4 still have that rule that destroying the capital ends a spaceship victory? I've never been in any danger in single player of that happening, so I don't know.

I think if Plako can get to DD and TR then rifles+Arty (need Arty to enable DD and TR now) would be enough to raze the CV cities, and he could leave the rest of the empire standing.

Commodore starting stupid wars: fun.
Anyone else starting stupid wars: throwing the game.
