... they don't fight battles on paper. :p
Caddy is significantly more powerful than Moiraine, has much more experience, and has a wealth of ter'angreal which give her who knows what extra advantages. She's tough, and she's a fighter. RJ made it pretty clear that her reputation is well deserved.
Moiraine, on the other hand, seems to have that undefinable characteristic of heroes that lets them come out on top no matter how outmatched they are.
I'd say if the Moiraine of EOTW through TSR fought Caddy, she'd lose, but I suspect the post-Rhuidean Moiraine would present a far greater challenge. We can only speculate on what post-ToM Moiraine's situation will be, but assuming she hasn't lost her channeling ability or been in any other way altered, she's probably taken yet another level of badass.
But with no other parameters to judge with, I'm going to have to stick with the safe bet. Cadsuane wins.

Moiraine. I think she'd put more into the fight.

Which is more powerful? I don't recall. But if neither had ter'angreal I'd pick Moiraine (barely) *NM*

During New Spring, though, Moiraine was still relatively weak

I read that as "uber-sized" and pictured Moiraine towering above Caemlyn

Yes, Moiraine has experience killing arrogant channelers who are more powerful than her.

She wouldn't do it because of the dangers and she sees it as evil. Not for Tower motives.

Cadsuane has no problems breaking rules when it suits her. Look at all the goodies she has.
