netbuzz writes "Employment research firm Foote Partners says U.S. labor statistics from last month reveal an increase of some 18,200 jobs in IT, which represents the largest such monthly jump since 2008. 'The overall employment situation in the U.S. is lackluster, in fact this is the fifth consecutive month of subpar results,' says David Foote. 'But the fact that more than 18,000 new jobs were created last month for people with significant IT skills and experience — and nearly 57,000 new jobs added in the past three months — is incredibly good news.'"

When I see job growth return to 1999 levels, then I will think things are getting better.

Seeing as this job growth happened while Mitt Romney was running for president (thus forcing our current, unamerican president's hand) I'm going to go ahead and give Romney credit for any new jobs created. This is just a small taste of the amazing things that will happen under President Romney's firm but loving leadership.
