ABC's The Note soft-pedals GOP woes

Surveying a pair of new national polls, The Note writes:
The new polls have little good news for Republicans -- unless you count worrisome news for the president as good news for his opponents.
Actually, this is what the New York Times/CBS poll found [emphasis added]:
While Republicans have steadily increased their criticism of Mr. Obama, particularly on the budget deficit, the poll found that the Republican Party is viewed favorably by only 28 percent of those polled, the lowest rating ever in a New York Times/CBS News poll. In contrast, 57 percent said that they had a favorable view of the Democratic Party.
Is it a membership thing or do we just declare it when ours sides ache too much from laughing at them and their spittle covered jowls?
