I find it hard to say on Clinton. I feel it was probably a combination of good luck and good diplomacy.

 

Also in a non-crisis situation Lincoln wouldn't have suspended Habeus Corpus and etc.

No.  But he had it in him to do so during times of Crisis.

For a comparison, when Wilson was doing all of his anti-freedom stuff during WW1 and everyone was siding with him because we were in a world war.... who was his biggest critic?

None other then Theodore Roosevelt.

To be fair, Wilson beat out TR for the presidency, so we can't properly assess how much of that was political or not
