Half of Americans still blame Bush for country's economic woes

Half of Americans continue to blame former president George W. Bush for economic woes in the country, a new poll found.

The Washington Post-ABC News Poll found that nearly five years after Bush left office, 50 percent of Americans said he is more responsible for the nation's state of the economy than President Barack Obama.

Only 38 percent see Obama as the main responsible party. And another 7 percent both are equally at fault, the Washington Times reports.

At the same time, the poll also found that while 41 percent trusted Obama to do a better job of handling the economy.

Nearly 45 percent trusted Republicans in Congress more with that issue.
