In Chapter 3 of ToM was made a clear distinction between the dream Egwene had about the Mesaana, the meaning of which Egwene felt immediately and knew it to be the right one, and the other two, including the one about the crystal sphere and Rand, which she couldn't interpret for the moment.
A bit later when she met Rand and he told her his plan for the seals, she thought about the crystal globe dream. But there's no mention here of Egwene being certain that's what the dream meant. If she was certain, why didn't she tell the Wise One about the dream?
She didn't tell Elayne and Nynaeve either, at least onscreen, even though both were reluctant to agree with her at first when she told him they need to oppose Rand's plan.

Egwene, a poor leader?

Egwene isn't supposed to be a leader. She's a dictator and a politician.

If the Shadow had removed Elaida so Egwene was Amyrlin whilst Rand was still Dark ...

Except Rand wouldn't go to the WT with Elaida in charge, without having to fight

Exactly how loyal do you think Nynaeve and Elayne are?

She has the same power base as any Amyrlin - the Aes Sedai, the artisans, Guards & citizens of TV

I don't think the case can be made for Rand having it easy

I would say that in the grand scheme of things, Rand's had good to balance out the bad.

But you are just undervaluing Egwene's struggles in comparison to the other characters.

I think comparing Egwene to McCain is asking for trouble on several fronts.
