If it had happened earlier, it might or might not have passed. We can't know.
I think that it almost certainly wouldn't have passed by the huge margin.

You're right, a full-scale war did not occur until those catalysts entered the pot.
If we had known there were no WMD then nobody from either party would have taken the risk of going in given the political backlash. Bombs are cheaper than American lives.
