norm-and-al-word-clouds-1Norm Coleman recently wrote a well-publicized “Dear Al” letter to Al Franken about the current Senate election contest. On Thursday Franken returned the favor in a column on (of all things) the same topic, which appeared in the Rochester Post-Bulletin. Above are the word clouds for both. Which is which?

This was tough. However, I believe the black background one is Al Franken’s–mostly due to the fact that there is a mention of President Obama. I wouldn’t expect Coleman to mention President Obama except in the context of obstructing legislation to reverse these past eight years of BushCo.
