But then, the GOP is so good about reading poll numbers (not):

The surveys indicate that the gap in approval between the president and Republicans in Congress has remained extremely large, that Republicans face greater internal divisions than Democrats and that the Democrats have maintained a significant edge in party identification. All told, the data underscore the relatively weak position that House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) and other Republican leaders occupy as they prepare for another round of budget talks with Obama as well as debates over immigration and gun control and, in the Senate, confirmation fights for senior administration positions.
