I don't know too much about Red Alert to be honest, though I did play the original like yourself. But, I have no doubt that in terms of sales and popularity, SC2 will win. As far as strategy and gameplay kind of stuff, it seems to me that Blizzard makes extremely good quality RTS's (and and other genre in general). They actually focus on making a game that revolves around the skill of the player and his/her ability to manage the units. I feel like other games don't focus that much on this aspect, and instead, focus on making cool looking units and teching as much as possible to win.
For instance, in SC, zealots (low end of the tech tree) will dominate siege tanks (higher in the tech tree). In Red Alert, your militia men (I don't know the name of the units) won't do shit against tanks.
