If we can show a pattern of war-mongering against our leaders by the right...we can nail them.

Why not just point out that the right is filling their bases heads with hatred for large swaths of people in the interests of political expediency every election cycle. Because it is a pattern by now and repeatedly doing the same thing again and again is on you, not the people you do it to. Bill Clinton was a "cracker", hate the poor. Obama is african american, hate anything black (or at least allow no shared sunlight between anyone black and regular Americans). Hillary Clinton is a woman, hate female role-models. Who does it make look bad when you can show a consistent, repeated pattern of starting wars on particular groups that best represent Democratic leaders.
