Romney, ObamaA new poll from Fox News finds Republicans are tepid in support of likely nominee Mitt Romney. The results from the conservative network find that only 33% of those backing Romney are “for” him while 58% support him simply to oppose Obama.

Among Obama backers, most of them are “for” Obama to the tune of 74% support.

The poll echoes the 2004 election, when much of the support for Democratic nominee John Kerry was not “for” him but “against” incumbent President George W. Bush. President Bush won re-election that year.

The overall results of the Fox poll show the election as a toss up between Obama and Romney.
