Bad news for those eager to see Hillary Clinton kick off her presidential campaign: Insiders on Team Clinton say that the former Secretary of Statewill likely delay her campaign launch by at least three months,and that has some wondering if Hillary is in trouble.

Until now, most expected the Clinton campaign to officially kickoff in April, the beginning of a new fundraising quarter, but her campaign team recently told Politico that it will put off campaign launch until summer.

"Hillary Clinton, expecting no major challenge for the Democratic nomination, is strongly considering delaying the formal launch of her presidential campaign until July, three months later than originally planned, top Democrats tell Politico," the site reported Thursday.

Of course, the news was greeted with some trepidation (or glee) on both sides of the political spectrum.

"Hillary retreats deeper into cocoon," trumpeted a Fox News headline.

"It is time to panic about Hillary Clinton again," Esquire wrote.

Is it time to panic or celebrate depending on your political inclination? Has Hillary hit a snag?

To the contrary, she probably feels very secure in her (likely) candidacy.

As an unnamed source told Politico, She doesnt feel under any pressure, and they see no primary challenge on the horizon. If you have the luxury of time, you take it.

And why not? No other Democratic contender is even close to challenging Hillary's bid and pressuring her into an early declaration. Former one-term Senator Jim Webb has announced the formation of a presidential exploratory committee. But the former Virginia senator is considered a long shot for the nomination.Ditto former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley and Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper.
