It's a funny thing about Maryland. There is so much footage and video of Gov. Martin O'Malley dancing around on stage with his band that we often forget how other states react when they see their governors getting down with the sound.

The second day of the Democratic National Convention will be called to order at 5:00 PM EST today, with a theme of "Renewing America's Promise."  Featured speakers include Gov. Kathleen Sebelius (D-Kan.), U.S. Sen. Robert Casey, Jr. (D-Pa.), Gov. Deval Patrick (D-Mass.), and Gov. Brian Schweitzer (D-Mont.). The keynote speaker will be Gov. Mark Warner (D-Va.), followed by the headline prime-time speaker, U.S. Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.).

The full schedule is below.

Yesterday, the News & Observer of Raleigh, North Carolina noted that a handful of governors -- including one Martin O'Malley -- slated to attend a local Barack Obama rally were nowhere to be found.
