I believe the standard turnaround on single-item special elections is ~45 days, which in the scheme of the legislative process is not all that bad.
In any case, I would not object to an appointee, who is not allowed to run in the special election, serving during a 30-60 day window before an elected official can take office. But I think this is an important enough issue that I will support any reasonable proposal; and I think Feingold is a smart guy, likely to come up with something better than barely-acceptable.
