As the warm glow of the Texas Democratic Party convention segues into the hot, hard summer work of turning Texas blue, the Texas Progressive Alliance has some of the best lefty blog posts from Dallas and around the state to help Democrats get motivated to make some of the necessary changes.
Off the Kuff urged everyone to look for inspiration in action, not candidates.
Libby Shaw at Texas Kaos reminisces about the Wendy Davis' filibuster last summer, and forthcoming change, in The People’s Filibuster, June 25, 2013
WCNews at Eye on Williamson points our that there is more than enough money to pay for what Texas needs. What's lacking is the political will: Surplus of Neglect.
Neil at All People Have Value added a page of clear and concise poems about everyday life to NeilAquino.com. All People Have Value is part of NeilAquino.com.
Texpatriate will not publish a convention recap before the roundup is sent out, because Wordpress has decided to corrupt 2500 words of meticulously researched and compiled Horwitz's opinions.

The election to chair of the Texas Democratic Party was fairly anticlimactic. PDiddie at Brains and Eggs seemed to be the only blogger covering it (though it was Tweeted to great effect).
And here are some posts of interest from other Texas blogs.
Socratic Gadfly recapped Greg Abbott's lousy week (and it was last Tuesday when he posted that).
The Texas Election Law Blog presents a long list of online resources for voters.
Todo Texas ponders the short term future of San Antonio as it navigates through some big changes.
Texas Clean Air Matters calls out PUC Chair Donna Nelson for her opposition to federal renewable energy tax credits.
Glasstire alerts us to a series of billboards that will be coming to I-10 that feature quotes from Gertrude Stein, because if there's one thing our highways could use a little more of, it's Gertrude Stein quotes.
The Texas Observer notes that like most bullies, Michael Quinn Sullivan is a lot more talk than action.
Unfair Park assures us that karma does in fact exist.
Beyond Bones does a little CSI: Cretaceous Era to discover who figured out that some dinosaurs had feathers.
Happy Fourth, everyone!
