WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The White House on Friday said the administration of President-elect Barack Obama, who takes office on January 20, was expected to take care of another economic stimulus package and that President George W. Bush's administration was focused on implementing current programs.

"We have heard the next administration talk very clearly that they plan to focus on a stimulus and that is something that we expect to happen in the next administration," White House spokesman Scott Stanzel said.
