For those lefty activists who are determined to "Re-create 68", let me point you to this article which gives a blow-by-blow account of what happened at the Chicago convention from the point of view of those who attended either as delegates, cops or protesters. It's very interesting reading (and a primer for the radicals that want to stir things up in Denver).
I remember the convention, though I was only 12 at the time and not really into politics. I do remember seeing the TV coverage of the rioting as well as the chaos on the convention floor.
My wish for Denver? May it make Chicago look like a Sunday School picnic.
