The good thing about waiting is that once the Bush Administration is out, there will be less pressure for the current politicos to defend him as much in my opinion.
I also don't know if Obama or McCain should be the ones initiating it. I feel an "outside" party would be better, like an "independent" investigation.

Yeah, it turns out in politics everything is political. I think waiting then gathering facts is the way to here as well. It's really not politically possible right now. If Obama does win the election I think the best way to go is for him to appoint a special prosecutor, and attack dog. Then he can turn him lose and defer all question to him/her and stay (or at least appear to stay) above it. All this talk about if we did this at this point, or had we started back then- it's not going to get us any where and it doesn't make it anymore politically practical now. Reminds me of a clip Jon Stewart showed a while back. It was a bunch of pundits stating "well, if this happens" and "If that happens" etc... the last one was some guy saying "yeah, and if my aunt had an male appendage she'd be my uncle."
