Another day, another Poll. No Dip. 50% approve Obama. (Reuters/Ipsos)

(Reuters) - For the first time since early July, more Americans approve of the job President Barack Obama is doing than disapprove, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos poll that shows his approval rating now at 50 percent.

The poll, taken March 8-11 on the heels of reports that 227,000 jobs were added to the U.S. economy in February, indicates that Obama's rating has risen by 2 percentage points during the past month.

... Some other polls have shown a recent dip in Obama's approval rating, and linked that to rising gasoline prices.
