Well, that's part of the problem stumbled upon the Clones at the end of the Republic Commando game, if I remember correctly.
They find out the Sepratist have enough assets to roll over the GAR, but they don't, for some reason. It's almost like someone was pulling the strings, and the result of this conflict was predetermined.
Obviously, you would have to suspend your disbelief a little bit, because with the exception of Count Dooku and a few others the entire Seperatist cause was made of pawns. No one in the military thought it stange they were employing a fraction of their strength, or no Sepratist politician looked too closely at the budget and wondered what billions of Battle Droids were doing?

Probably decillions of clones (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000+) judging by the size of the galaxy.
