If you're anything like me, you've found the Democratic National Convention television coverage to be overwhelming. If you are me, you're a little embarrassed that you ran out of original fantasies involving CNN's Andrea Mitchell somewhere during Tuesday night's introduction of Hillary Clinton by Chelsea Clinton. In an effort to keep the coverage succinct, but relevant, I've recapped the Democratic National Convention in haiku form.

Night 1
Michelle Obama
Beautiful, lawyer speaker
Like Claire Huxtable

Night 2
"Hillary to win
More gold than Phelps in '12'," says
Terry McAullife

Night 3
Joe, Beau, Jill Biden
Names so white, Mom less scared of
Barack Obama

Night 4
Monumental Day
Nation steps forward, until
Next week's strike on gays
