Mr. Paul’s office, although not as well staffed, operates with military-like discipline. Visitors’ names and phone numbers are promptly entered into a database. Doors are kept closed, and a “liberty bell” rings every time a caller converts a supporter from another campaign. It rang five times in our 20 minutes there.


But Mr. Romney and Mr. Paul are more than the exception than the rule, Republicans say. Other Republican field operations fall well short of historical New Hampshire standards, by several measures.

I love the liberty bell bit.
