Bush Kerry duel over economy health in radio talks
President Bush and Senator Kerry traded jabs on jobs in their weekly radio addresses. Bush touted the March payroll rise of 308000 as proof the economy grows stronger while Kerry stressed manufacturing weakness and blamed Bush for job losses since 2001. Public polls show voters cite the economy as a top concern and favor Kerry on jobs. Bush highlighted industrial states like West Virginia to press his case.
