i heard it was the law.. sec of state may not take political position and therefore does not attend conventions.

"Federal law -- the Hatch Act of 1939, amended by Congress in 1993 -- specifically prohibits secretaries of state from attending political conventions, and the State Department's own ethics guidelines also rule out political activity."
