If he gets a whiff that he's on slippery ground do you think he's going to take the hit he deserves or throw you under the bus?

I've dealt with plenty of guys like this.

Documentation, documentation, documentation.

Every email, every note, every communication.

You can answer completely honestly without throwing anyone under the bus,

"Why are sales flat Rick?"

Well in Q2 I generated XX leads, I don't do the close so I can't answer fully.

If that becomes a bad result for your boss he did it to himself.

This seems like the way to go to me. Either this guy sucks, or he's intentionally sucking to make you look bad. I don't think going to him will help. It sounds like you have a decent rapport with his boss. I would thoroughly document, and either wait for the big boss to come to you or possibly go directly to the big boss instead.
