After making a speech today to the International Association of Privacy Professionals, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales took questions from a number of reporters.  Eric Lipton from the New York Times asked him several questions, ending with "And is there any consideration of you actually leaving as Attorney General?"  Gonzales responded:
