Watch how the "MVP" scene starts out. The girls plan to go and play pool, Pauly prefers going creepin', but he ends up going to the Situation sitting in the hot tub to get his support/approval of the idea first.
adding to this:
when snooki drops the chicken, she and vinny ask the situation what they should do with it ("pick that **** up, dog")
sort of like when a kid drops something and asks his parents what they should do
Mike is clearly the alpha male in the house as evidenced by stuff like this, gathering the housemates to talk about angelina, etc.
