Well, for once, CodeLite is cross platform open source (Mac, Windows, Linux FreeBSD and other OSs)
Second, CodeLite is targeting the GNU toolchain (g++, gdb, gcc etc.) - you can work with the MS tools as well, but you wont be able to debug (WinDbg is not supported yet).
Beside that, CodeLite offers many functionalities that VC does not offer (I have not tried VS2008 yet, but did work for a long time with VS2005) - such as SVN integration, refactoring, unique features (e.g. let CodeLite add include files for missing types) *better* code navigation and usability
Not to mention that the instalerl size is only 11MB...
The most important: response time for new feature requests/bugs are within days - I try to provide a new build which includes significant improvements every 2 weeks or so (search CodeLite on this site).
I can count other advantages, but If this did not convince you - there is no point in continuing
