XENIA, Ohio (Reuters) - Democratic Sen. John Kerry (news - web sites) attacked the economic record of President Bush (news - web sites) on Saturday and the Senator from Massachusetts was later endorsed by the New York Times.


The Times, in endorsing Kerry, characterized President Bush's presidency as "disastrous" and accused him of "turning the government over to the radical right."


"We are impressed with Mr. Kerry's wide knowledge and clear thinking," the Times said Sundays editions. "He is blessedly willing to reevaluate decisions when conditions change."


Kerry "has qualities that could be the basis for a great chief executive, not just a modest improvement on the incumbent," the newspaper said. "He strikes us, above all, as a man with a strong
moral core."
