I would not go as far as to say "none," but Lincoln was indeed a fiscal conservative, though not very conservative socially. He certainly was not a radical slave opponent either, at least not in the Chase and Seward extremes.
But as the war continued he did indeed become much more progressive in his ideology, though not to the point I would call him a liberal. Perhaps a Moderate Republican.
JFK wouldn't even be a Democrat today. FDR, yes. He's the sumbitch who created this kind of thinking.
