These are all ancillary events.

Aside from Eva Longoria, who is a co-chair of Obama's Re-election Campaign and I understand will be giving a speech; and Ashley Judd, who is a delegate from her state; none of these people or groups are going to be a part of the actual convention.

I'm glad they'll be around, though.
