Every state in the Confederacy mentioned slavery in their "new" state constitutions.  The Articles of Succession discussed how slavery was paramount to their economy.  
Economy-free labor
State's Rights-the right to keep slaves
Lincoln's election- he wanted to keep the country together but didn't want the expansion of slavery.  His party, though, was for abolition

Aha! so it really WAS about the economy and "rights"!
