Today's roundup of the best convention-related coverage from TAP and around the Web.
- Eugene Robinson tells Democrats to chill out and calm down, but some of the delegates are still concerned.
- What Spencer Ackerman said.
- Juan Williams embarrasses himself.
- Ezra Klein comments on Edward Kennedy's speech to the Democratic Convention.
- Pam Spaulding hangs out with the LGBT Caucus in Denver.
- Dana Goldstein interviews Nancy Keenan, president of NARAL: Pro-Choice America and reports on how the convention reveals a divide over education in the party.
- Sure you could read Marie Cocco argue that the Democratic Party exists to glorify the magnificence that is Hillary Clinton, but trust me, you'd much rather read Lani Guinier explain how what is at stake is bigger than any one person.
- Oliver Willis has taken "the dumbest picture of Anderson Cooper Ever." It's kind of dying for the LOLCat treatment. But then again, I say that about all pictures.
- Harold Myerson talks about the two Americas represented at the national conventions of America's two political parties. The big difference? At the RNC they serve ice cream. At the DNC they serve frozen yogurt. Just kidding. He also reports on labor's role in the 2008 election.
- See our latest "party people" Q&A here along with links to earlier installments.
- Finally, Ezra Klein stumbles into a group of Denver's forgotten poor.
