Gingrich won't vote for Ron Paul....

[The world will shine with light in our nightmare]

Yeah, this is a bit hypocritical for Gingrich, but it's also time someone treats Ron Paul the same way Paul treats everyone else in the Republican primary. When are we going to get angry that Ron Paul hasn't pledged to vote for the nominee whoever it is? Oh, wait, Ron Paul is different so we can't take every thinly veiled attack he throws constantly at everyone every time he talks seriously and can't expect him to support the rest of the party.

Paul's only running as a Republican because even he knows that a third-party run would get him nowhere in a general election, like his 1988 run.  He's not actually a Republican at heart.  That's why his campaign is telling Libertarians and independents to re-register as Republicans just so they can support his nomination to a major party, so that he could stand a chance in the general.

In other words, he's a troll.

But libertarians pretending to be Republicans don't make up 24% of the Iowa GOP electorate. Ron Paul is getting normal Republicans to vote for him too. And for some reason even though Ron Paul has never been a team player with the rest of the party, people expect the rest of the party to be team players with him. It doesn't work that way. If Paul wants the establishment to support him, he's going to need to support the establishment.

I'm not saying you're wrong about that.  Then again, that is why in the end, Paul will not be getting the nomination.  The main reason why he jumped into the race was so he could influence the election and expand his fanbase within the Republican Party, which he has been very successful in doing this time around.

I was unaware that loyalty to The Party took precedence over loyalty to your values or to your country. Thanks for that spiel, Comrade

Well, that's just the way it works with party primaries.  It isn't moral, but that is what it takes to get the support of your party in order to represent it, sometimes.  Some people like politicians that can lead more than represent, others like politicians that can represent more than lead.
