So I just came up with the mats for either of these belts. Did a bit of looking and it seemed Sash is definitely BiS for Mages. However, checked Rawr, and it has Cord way up there. What would be better? I figured the haste on the Sash would greatly overpower the Cord.

cord
vs
sash
(sorry.. wanted them side by side in my reply for easy comparison)
first thing, what spec are you? that has a great effect on which one would be more useful for you. the sash, with it's haste and hit rating is probably much better for the fireball spec.. however, the haste is also much more beneficial for arcane spec, but you need far less hit for that one.. the Cord is probably much better for frostfire spec (since you need less hit, and more crit).
both of them are making me drool... lol.

I went with the Sash, despite how nice the Cord looks. Mainly because my overcapped crit is going to disappear as soon as I replace my weapon, which means I'll get more crit and spellpower in the end. Both will probably be replaced inside the Argent Tournament Arena once that comes out in the next patch, so having a Best in Slot now is worth it either way.
But if you're already way overcapped on the hit without a +100 hit weapon, the cord is the obvious choice.

I just ran a simulation with RAWR. I'm not going to list here all the details of the configurations and raid buffs... suffice to say that I only put a few common raid buffs, latency to 0.3, interrupts = 1 and set the optimization for DPS (highest optimization thoroughness). I select FB/TTW spec, with Molten Armor, Fireball and Living BombI Glyphs. I also selected all WoLK epics BUT NO HARD-MODES. Processions available: Tailoring + Enchanting.
The result was: Sash Of Ancient Power. I can list the other gear, but since this thread is only about the belts.......
