But Slick has been Vic's in-house persona since the start, if he cut it now, everyone would hate him for being fake (and for once they'd actually have reason for calling him that.)

Vic needs to stick to his guns. His main problem is, he's allied himself with the least-popular member of the house. He doesn't stand a chance of winning while Jay is still in there. Personally I think Jay has been misunderstood by most of the general public. But let's face it, he aint gonna win!
