#1 Definitely playing for time. He needs time to see how the Bush Doctrine plays out, how Hillary's chances look for 2008, and how he can spin his amazingly inept and failed tenure into a success. He is on the hook for so many botched decisions and policies - if he has 2 neurons to rub together, he'll lay it off on the Clinton Admin's disastrous policies and decisions, from keeping the NorKies afloat while they screwed Clinton, to the insane separation between intel and enforcement, to missing golden opportunities to grab OBL before he killed almost 3000 Americans. The list is very long and distinguished. Iran may turn out to be the crown jewel of his failures.

W should've fired his ass on Jan 21, 2000.

#2 He'll keep cogitating and deferring until the project fades away quietly. Already nobody except his future unemployed CIA groupies and a few Bush-haters expect to find anything useful in his words, ie something that can be used to pound Bush and his coterie. When even the editor of Der Spiegel writes that Bush was right all along, how will it reflect on Tenet should he try to demonstrate otherwise?
