It seemed like Vernon's group only had a single gun, and he could barely use it when Lee approached him. That gives me the impression that his group can't defend themselves. They lucked out finding the fallout shelter and all that food, but the supply won't last. It may keep them going but eventually it will run out, and then what? They can traverse the city easily through the sewers, but there is nothing left in Savannah.
Combine that with the appearance that they can't defend themselves, and i don't think they would survive. They've lived so far by avoiding the walkers, never confronting them. When the time comes that they must leave their shelter to find supplies, i think most or all of his group would fall prey to the walkers, and Clementine too if she were with them.
In the short term, she might be safer with Vernon. In the long term, however, i think she would be in far more danger than if she stayed with Lee.
