I haven't heard anyone claiming Mitt buys endorsements.
That's my take as well, though I don't camp out on this site 24/7 like some do. I might've missed seeing a Fred supporter accuse Mitt of bribing an endorser. Surely the Romney supporters will post links to support this allegation.

Buying all the people you can buy helps. If there is a surge, could be just a wet dream.

...The general quid pro quo pattern is this: a) conservative group criticizes Willard; b) Willard gives money to group in manner he never has before; c) Group does 180 on Willard and suddenly loves him.

And here's one from the author of this thread:
Dear Paul,
Just because your guy tries to buy all the endorsements he can does not mean that all the other candidates do it too.

There are many, many more that I could have posted and I'm willing to post them if you want. Heck, just read a number of the comments on this thread, particularly from JRochelle. Anybody who supports Mitt Romney is bought and paid for. (See response 14: "Mitt has had to purchase his conservative creds.") And don't Clinton up on me and claim that "buying people" isn't the same thing as "bribery".
Well, you asked for evidence that Thompson supporters were making the same accusations against Romney. I started the ball rolling with some quotes and several of the people quoted have confirmed and amplified their charges. But, when it’s lies for their side, those lies are true.
