Gingrich calls on conservatives to back Romney
By Lindsey Boerma
(CBS News) CRAMERTON, N.C. -- Newt Gingrich on Wednesday unofficially conceded the Republican presidential race to Mitt Romney, calling on conservatives to unite behind the presumptive nominee.
Following Romney's clean sweep of all five primaries on Tuesday - including Delaware, where Gingrich had staked the remainder of his tattered campaign - the former House speaker said in a speech to the Gaston County GOP here that "it's pretty clear Gov. Romney is gonna be the nominee."

Gingrich said he will continue to campaign in North Carolina through the week "as a citizen," and that "we're working out the details of our transition and we'll have information for the press in the next couple of days."
