FILE - In this Feb. 1, 2012 file photo, President Barack Obama speaks in Falls Church, Va. Month by month, the U.S. job market is regaining its health. According to reports Friday, Feb. 3, 2012, so many jobs are being added that the unemployment rate has dropped for five straight months. At 8.3 percent, it's at a three-year low. Whether the job market actually feels stronger, though, depends on your perspective. The presidential election is sure to be determined, in part, by how Americans interpret the shifts in the job market. Perhaps no one has more reason to cheer the improving job numbers than Obama. His re-election hopes rest heavily on whether most voters will agree that the economy has improved on his watch. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh, File)
