Yes!

Via Political Wire:
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) will form a presidential exploratory committee, CNN reports.

"The Minnesota Republican plans to file papers for the committee in early June, with an announcement likely around that same time. But a source close to the congresswoman said that Bachmann could form the exploratory committee even earlier than June so that she could participate in early Republican presidential debates."

Bachmann tells the Des Moines Register: "The Iowa Straw Poll I think will be a key for us. That will be a focal point. And so we'll have to make the decision so we can meaningfully participate in the Iowa Straw Poll."
BTW, this may be one of the funniest quotes ever:
"... No group in America has been more helped by the government than the American Indians."
-- John Stossel on FoxNews, who obviously defines the word "help" a lot differently than most folks.
