Updated: 03:52 PM EDT Bush Job Approval Rating Rebounds 56 Percent Approve of Performance, Up from Recent Low of 44 Percent WASHINGTON (Oct. 14) - President Bush's approval rating has rebounded from a recent near record low for his presidency following a public relations offensive, a CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll released on Monday showed. The poll found that 56 percent of Americans now approve of the way Bush is handling his job. Bush's job performance rating had hovered around 44 percent in recent weeks as Democratic presidential candidates stepped up criticism of his handling of the economy and the Iraq war amid mounting U.S. casualties in Iraq. Bush launched a new public relations offensive last week to defend his policies on Iraq and the economy. The White House also announced a reorganization of the administration's Iraqi reconstruction management. Just over half of those polled now think he deserves to be re-elected while 38 percent of registered voters say they will definitely vote for him in 2004. An equal number say they definitely will vote against him. You asked: If Californians can recall a governor, could Americans recall a president? The new CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll, conducted Oct. 10-13, found that 44 percent of Americans think the U.S. economy is in good shape, up from 35 percent in March. More than half of the respondents said they were optimistic that the economy would be performing well a year from now. According to the poll, retired Gen. Wesley Clark continues to lead the list of Bush's nine Democratic challengers, garnering an 18 percent rating among registered Democrats and Democratic leaning voters. The telephone poll of 1,004 adults has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points. 10/13/03 22:36 ET Copyright 2003 Reuters Limited.
