I don't think it was intentional but I do believe that the Gonzales story is more newsworthy. What Craig did was wrong (soliciting sex in a public restroom) but Gonzales has been impeding justice. I consider that the bigger crime.

If anything it's the other way around, and the sudden blanket coverage of Craig is to take some heat off Gonzo.
From a random press snippet:
"The airport incident occurred June 11. Craig signed his plea papers on Aug. 1, and word of the events surfaced Monday."
Meanwhile the small articles in the back pages say that the investigation of Gonzales' actions and methods isn't over yet....

I doubt his resignation would be to take the heat off of Senator Craig. They will let Senator "I'm not gay" Craig twist in the wind for that one.
So that makes three out the current administration that are saying goodbye: Snow for medical reasons, Rove for family reasons and Gonzales it doesn't really matter what he says, you have to treat it as a lie anyway. What's next, Ms. Rice asking to go back to Stanford?

No. The report about Craig came out after Gonzo's decision to quit.

The truth is, Craig was not a prominent member of the Senate, so I'd have to say no.

I don't think the Craig case had anything to do with it. Gonzo left to take heat off the Shrub.

No it was aimed at taking the heat off Bush.
usually when something liek this occurs many investigations will halt after congressmen feel justic was served.
Unforutnately for Bush, investigations will continue.
