Growth rate gives Bush a lift in poll Associated Press Public approval of President Bush's handling of the economy has increased amid signs that the economy is recovering, according to a poll released Wednesday. Half of respondents in the NBC-Wall Street Journal poll approved of Bush's handling of the economy, up from 43 percent who approved two months ago. Bush's overall job approval rating was 51 percent, with 44 percent not approving. That's largely unchanged from two months ago -- when his job approval rating was 49 percent. Recent economic reports have shown the nation's growth rate is up, while unemployment claims are down -- factors that appear to have helped him on that measure. Bush's overall job approval rating has ranged from 50 percent to the mid 50s in several recent polls. Almost two-thirds, or 63 percent, still support U.S. action against Iraq, but when asked if that action has been worth the cost, respondents were evenly split. The poll of 1,003 adults was taken Nov. 8-10 and has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
