To repeat myself slightly - even compared to hoods, I think you get more leverage on bullhorns - but that may be because I have big hands and I can only grab the hoods with a couple of fingers. But on a long ride drops are always better, bullhorns are only better for when you need a lot of power to start quickly - like at the traffic lights, or on a time trial with aero bars to tuck into..
