bitaddress is marginally more secure as it will generate the entire private key for you via your browser. vanitygen on the other hand will generate part of the private key on the "server side" (it is actually generated by what are essentially miners however the net effect is that it is generated on the server side)

I think there is no difference as long as you use them to generate addresses at offline computers.
