If you can get to the mall about 0800, you can find parking right on the mall. Last time we went, we parked behind the Washington Monument. We arrived about 1000. It was a long walk but we did get to see the WW2 Memorial that was just completed. So, the walk paid off in the end.
You can also take the metro or subway to the Smithsonian.. this ways you are right on the mall.
We usually drive to Shady Grove and take a train from there. Less stressful and no hassle with parking and cruising around in DC. But still some walking to do, non the less.
