(Corrects spelling of Hillary)By Mark Felsenthal
WASHINGTON, Sept 20 (Reuters) - If Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton harbors ambitions to run for president, she is
keeping them under tight wraps."I have no earthly idea what she'll decide to do," her
husband, former President Bill Clinton, said on CBS television's
"Face the Nation" on Sunday.
Although Hillary Clinton went down to defeat to President
Barack Obama in a close primary contest in 2008, she has stayed
in the public eye as the president's top diplomat. In that role,
Clinton, who had been a U.S. Senator from New York, has built a
reputation as a capable stateswoman and a loyal lieutenant to
the president. She is frequently rated as the most popular
member of Obama's cabinet.
Clinton has said will step down from her current job whether
the president wins re-election or not.
"She wants to take some time off, kind of regroup. Write a
book," her husband said.
