Root Droid 2 stuck on boot after CM Nightly Flash

After looking through a few threads, I've found that this is a common issue with newbies. I tried to install a CM7 Nightly onto my Droid 2 and now it won't boot correctly and I can't get into Clockwork. I can get into the default recovery and into the bootloader, kind of.

In the throes of trying to fix this issue, my battery died and fails to charge. Because of this, I can no longer use the Bootloader and, presumably, can no longer SBF a ROM onto the phone in this manner. So I'm stuck booting or in the default recovery.

I can't install any custom ROMs because of the sign verification in recovery. I also cannot get the battery to charge short of putting it in another phone, to which I have no access.

I assume the solution is either getting another battery and using the bootloader to fix the phone, or flashing through the recovery. I would very much like to do the latter, because that is the technology to which I have access. Thank you for all and any help.
