Ron Paul on the Road Enough?

Recent feedbacks to FMNN and an on-line candidate-travel
map - courtesy of the New York Times - raise the question of GOP
presidential candidate Ron Paul’s travel schedule and whether
he is visiting primary states enough, specifically Iowa and New
Hampshire, especially the latter.
The NYT, on-line map seems to shows how many times candidates
have visited certain states. According to the map, Ron Paul is
apparently lagging behind some major Democratic and Republican
candidates when it comes to visiting New Hampshire - a state that
is likely sympathetic to his limited government campaign.

Here’s a comment from FMNN feedbacker “NH for Paul”

I've spent a lot of time volunteering here. I stop in the campaign
office at least once a week and I occasionally talk with people
directly involved in the campaign effort. Ron Paul doesn't spend
enough time here. His volunteers say it. His campaign staff says
it. I know what the goals are and the resources available, and
right now they just don't add up. It's true that polls are underestimating
Paul's support, but not by as much as you think. I'd say his 8%
poll numbers are really closer to 15%. He needs closer to 30%
to WIN.
The major canvassing events are on weekends and there are only
five weekends left. That's ten days, not including bad weather
days. All I'm saying is to win, we need more boots on the ground
and we need them NOW! Operation NH people, people who are willing
to move here and canvass 7 days a week, are scrambling to find
places to stay and they're not getting much support from the national
campaign, as of yet. That offer to pay for room and board should
be extended to people in a state that Ron Paul can actually WIN.
