'Troubled times' By JOHN SEEWER, AP
Sen. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, who traveled to Toledo with Bush, said it's important to note that the president recognizes there are problems with the economy.
'Manufacturing is under siege,' Voinovich said. 'He's listening. A leader must recognize there's a problem. Too often leaders don't recognize there's a problem.'
Voinovich said Bush's emphasis on educating workers and reducing health care costs will go toward helping manufacturers.
