    WAKARUSA, Indiana — President Barack Obama Wednesday unveiled a 2.4-billion-dollar funding boost for the development of new generation electric vehicles and slammed critics of his economic rescue plans.
    The president traveled to a jobs crisis blackspot in the economically-struggling midwestern state of Indiana to announce a plan he said would create tens of thousands of new jobs.
    "For far too long we've failed to invest in this kind of innovative work, even as countries like China and Japan were racing ahead," Obama said.
    "That's why this announcement's so important. This represents the largest investment in this kind of technology in American history."
