Bachmann Campaign Manager Steps Down

Rep. Michele Bachmann’s campaign manager, Ed Rollins, will step down from his day-to-day responsibilities.

According Rollins and a statement released by the Bachmann campaign Monday, Rollins’ move to step down was made based on health reasons.

The 64-year-old political adviser said Monday on CNN’s AC360 that after having survived a stroke, “I ust don’t have the endurance to do 12-14 hour days, seven days a week, anymore.”

Roillins, who also worked on former President Ronald Reagan’s campaign, said that the entrance of Texas Governor Rick Perry has had its effect on the Bachmann campaign.

“It took a lot of the momentum that we could have gotten out of the straw poll victory,” Rollins said of Perry’s entrance.

Rollins said Bachmann stands in the GOP’s number 3 spot behind Romney and Perry.
