No Offence my friend, but it sounds like a little cowardice to me at least, getting out of there will improve nothing.
It's not cowardice to face the facts. The facts are either:
- You can deal with it.
- You can't deal with it.
If you can't you will have to walk away, since if he is a VP you can't do anything about it (unless you can actually talk to his boss).
EDIT: I assume you talked to him already.
