Contracts I've signed stipulate that the bonus can only be owed back if fired for cause.

  Still seems dubious. What if the cause is “you didn’t meet our [obscenely unrealistic] expectations”?

    Performance is not a "for cause" reason.

    Are you suggesting there is no reliable legal distinction between cause and without cause dismissal?

    "for cause" in the US usually implies a reason that is above and beyond bad performance, such as egregious or criminal actions (theft, fraud, abuse, sexual harassment, criminal negligence, etc.). not showing up on time enough, or being kinda crappy at your job generally would not qualify
