That didn't take long.
A Superior Court Judge in Massachusetts has thrown out the request by the Republicans to enjoin the appointment of Paul Kirk as interim Senator to hold Kennedy's seat until the special election slated for January. No word yet if he used the phrase "whiny-assed titty babies" in his opinion.
The Republicans objected to Governor Deval Patrick declaring an emergency so as to give the appointment immediate effect. Because having the people of Massachusetts have a full complement of senators during the health care debate is no where near as important as was the issue of the boating speed limit in Charlton, which Willard had found to be an emergency during his stint in office.
