Sky News US Presidential Election graphic - bring it

As if there wasn't enough hype around the US Presidential Election,
Sky News' graphics department have excelled themselves with this
badass counter in the bottom of the corner.

It's reminiscent of the sort of thing you'd see around coverage of a
major boxing bout or WWE pay-per-view, pitting the people's champ
Barack Obama against the underdog John McCain.

I'm not going to lie to you, I think it's mint. I won't even dignify
the BBC effort as it's not the same sport let alone the same league.

My only criticism is that they could have had it as a countdown for
weeks. That way we might have known there was an election on.

I'm just amazed Sarah Palin isn't on it.
