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.

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

Well, other than party loyalty why would we expect Gingrich to vote for Ron Paul?
