Alberto Gonzales contends he is (not) a candidate

According to the Denver Post, he is contending he is not a candidate:

A longtime friend and adviser to the president, Gonzales has been answering questions about the Supreme Court for years, he said. And though he would not rule out the possibility of being nominated, saying that was up to Bush, his answer now is the same it's always been, he said.

"I've been asked since 2001 whether or not I'd consider going on the court, and I've consistently said, 'I'm not a candidate for the Supreme Court' - and that remains true today," Gonzales said. "I love being attorney general. My job, currently, is to help the president make this decision."

Uh... does that really sound like a definitive no to you? Not me, either.
