Why do Democrat polls go up simply when they don't screw up, but Republicans actually have to do something good to get their polls up?

Yeah Fritz, it's called watching the news. When Obama doesn't screw up, his polls start going up till he screws up again, and then they go down.

Republicans, their polls just seem to do down till they make some kind of good speech about what they believe in that we agree with or they do something that people like.

But Hillary, all she's had to do for the vast majority of this campaign is simply stay out of the spotlight, and her polls start souring.

Do we actually have any data on that? I don't think there ever have been any instances of Republicans doing something good, at least not since the 1870s or so.
