Clinton admin intelligence was only a SMALL part of the mix, but it was poured in after only cursery inspection and stirred in with the rest in order to complete the concatenation process and arrive at an answer. This is how it's supposed to be done, but...uh...well...it was an obvious mistake.
Mentioning way back when that the data may be skewed because of the type of people who started making the "sexed-up" charges, and needs to be examined because those people should have had any understanding of the ingredients added to the process, only earns you a tinfoil hat award rather than serious consideration. It's a gut instinct thing. In retrospect, it seems that the people calling for careful reexamination of that data were right.
So, the Democrats lied? We're suppose ignore it and to start at the Bush election rather than ask them where they got their info??
