Saint Paul party venues aren’t booking up as fast as other venues around the metro area:

Yet there are still a healthy number of parties being planned. According to an incomplete list compiled by one Washington, D.C., lobbying firm, there are at least 370 parties scheduled at the Democratic and Republican national conventions.

However, just 70 of those were in St. Paul.

“Is it as great as everyone’s expectations? I guess we’re going to have to wait and see,” [Randy] Kelly [son of the eponymous former St. Paul mayor] said.

Hm.  Why would Republicans be overlooking Saint Paul venues and going elsewhere in the metro?

Why, oh why indeed would that be?
