I don't know how I missed this, but, according to Time.com:

Both Chief Justice William Rehnquist, 78, and Sandra Day O'Connor, 73, have told friends they'd like to step down. And both know that if they want George Bush to name their successor, they should leave this year. In 2004, with an election in the offing, confirmation of a replacement will be all but impossible.

This is the first I've heard about this, but I wonder if they both might step down at the same time. That could be good for the Democrats -- really, all they need is one moderate out of the two and if you get, say, a Wilkinson and a Gonzalez, you're happy with that trade.
