Her strategists tell TIME they are urging her to make her intentions clear by next spring--by forming an exploratory committee, for instance--to lock up fund-raising and political talent. Those close enough to know say that she is genuinely undecided but that Bill is not disguising his eagerness to see her make a bid for his old job.
