Once Kirk is sworn in the game is over.

Too little too late I think.

I'm not so sure. Remember they held up Franken until all the court cases were resolved. If there is a case pending that questions Kirk’s appointment, the Senate could refuse to seat him until that case is resolved. Also remember how Roland Burris was held up in January. There is precedent. The Senate doesn’t have to seat anyone until everything is cleared up.

Who did they enjoin from what in the injunction they sought? The right move for the GOP was to seek an injunction of Galvin from certifying Patrick’s appointment of Kirk; without the certification, the Senate would be hard pressed to seat Kirk.
