Deidre Hall For Obama

After weeks of media speculation about potential drama at the convention between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, the only soap opera that was evident inside the Pepsi Center Wednesday night was the appearance of longtime DAYS OF OUR LIVES actress Deidre Hall (aka Dr. Marlena Evans). Hall, attending her first convention, was sitting with the California delegation, cheering on Biden, and chanting "John McCain, more of the same."

She told MSNBC that she wholeheartedly supports Obama. And when asked how long she's been an Obama supporter she said, "Once I heard Michelle speak at UCLA, I knew she was the woman I wanted in the White House."

Hall was also spotted at the Huffington Post’s Oasis - a suite of offices magically transformed into a veritable sanctuary for attendees of the convention. Offering massages, facials, yoga instruction, healthy vegan food, green smoothies, and some good old fashioned R & R, the Oasis became a home away from home for many of the ever-busy journalists, delegates, and bloggers who have been running about making news, covering news, and writing news.
