Calling Clinton a narcissist but not other candidates *is* sexist given that she has not displayed any behavior out of the ordinary for Presidential candidates. That is where the sexism lies. Not calling her narcissistic, but calling *only* her narcissistic.
If one does not want to be labelled sexist, then he or she must check his or her double standards at the door.
I think all politicians, including Obama, are deceitful. However, there are larger political sins--like being weak on policy and masquerading such weaknesses as "bipartisanship." If you're afraid to ask the, largely Democratic, Senate to pass big legislation, for fear that you won't get elected, then just say so. Will I vote for the person who is scared to make tough choices? No, but at least that person is being honest about their limitations.
A power hungry leader in an electoral system is a *good* thing. That leader wants to remain in power and will do what it takes to gain the approval of the electorate in order to stay in power for a second term. In a Fascist state, where the leader operates outside of the will of the people, it's bad. In a system that is dictated by the will of the people, it's good.
It's the ineffectual, "I-don't-care-if-I-actually-win-this-thing," "Oh-my-god-am-I-actually-President? How-did-that-happen?," leader that will lead the nation into further chaos--or at least get nothing accomplished.
Give me the hard as nails, calculating, do what it takes leader any day (as long as that leader is fighting on the right side of the fence). I can see why reactionary Republicans are scared shitless when they hear the name "Clinton."
