Just like BC I strongly suggest to try to handle both cameras first. The D7000 is a D90 on steroids, not a sized down D300. If it were my only camera, I wouldn't want to use it without an additional grip.
On the other hand: the rumor mill suggests some Nikon announcements in roughly two weeks. It's unclear so far if Nikon is going to announce their mirrorless solution or new DSLRs (which most likely would be D4 and/or D400). Even if you decide to stick to a D300s after the announcement of new cameras, it might become considerably cheaper then.

Talking about image quality, I guess that the D7000 with the newer sensor it will be superior to D300s.
The D4 or a new D400 will be very expensive for my budget.
