Bush sunny on economy, despite transition "nerves"
Washington-AP -- President Bush is voicing new optimism on the economy, even though he acknowledges a "time of transition" is making lots of workers worry.
Speaking to the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce in Washington, the president said he knows it's "not easy" for workers when the economy's changing. He says, "Transition unsettles the nerves."
However, Bush pointed to increasing growth rates, low inflation and high homeownership as signs the economy is looking up.
And he insisted his Democratic foe's plans to scrap some tax cuts would halt that rebound in its tracks.
Bush spoke on the eve of two days of political travel that'll take him to New Hampshire, Massachusetts, New Mexico and Arizona.
