Lenin's position on integrating with the masses meant running working class parties in opposition to establishment parties, ie voting PSL over DNC. The vanguard's task is to become a party that the working class puts their full support behind, so that when revolution does happen, the vanguard can serve as the spearpoint to direct the masses in one unified direction and crush the capitalist state, replacing it with a socialist one.
