FILE - In this April 5, 2012, file photo, Republican presidential candidate Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, gestures while speaking at the University of California at Berkeley, Calif. Some of Mitt Romney’s former foes have yet to endorse him as the Republicans’ presidential nominee. The congressman from Texas is still in the race and hasn’t yet recognized Romney as the party’s nominee. He is pushing a libertarian message of ending the Federal Reserve, returning the country’s currency to the gold standard and reducing the United States’ involvement around the globe. Romney disagrees with those positions, likely precluding an endorsement from Paul. (AP Photo/Ben Margot, File)

FILE - In this April 25, 2012, file photo, Republican presidential candidate, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich speaks in Cramerton, N.C. Some of Mitt Romney’s former foes have yet to endorse him as the Republicans’ presidential nominee. Gingrich leaves the GOP campaign with his reputation battered and his wallet empty. He is looking to repair his standing in the party as the intellectual heavyweight and for an opportunity to push conservative policy goals. Romney, now the party’s leader, could afford him that platform. Gingrich is also carrying more than $4.5 million and would welcome Romney urging his supporters to help pay down that debt.

Santorum wants promises from Romney before backing

FILE - In this April 2, 2012, file photo, then Republican presidential candidate former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum speaks in Shawano, Wis. Some of Mitt Romney’s former foes have yet to endorse him as the Republicans’ presidential nominee. Santorum campaigned hard against Romney and the health care overhaul he signed into law as Massachusetts governor. Conservatives cast it as a precursor to Democrats’ national plan and Romney has vowed to repeal it. Santorum advisers say he will not back Romney until he is convinced that Romney is committed to upending it, as well as ensuring conservatives’ views are represented in the party’s platform and in Romney’s campaign.
