That's because the metal:use-macro replaces the entire <div> with the 
macro before the tal:define has a chance to do anything (it also blows 
away your "class" attribute).  This should work if you change it to:

<div tal:define="linkgroup python:blog.linkGroups.get('blogs')">
<div metal:use-macro="macros/renderLinkGroup"></div>
</div>
