Actually, he should appoint someone in the next 15 minutes. McConnell may have a way to pro-forma reconvene the Senate earlier than the 22nd.

Being counter-intuitive but your average rotten-borough Tea Bagger Congresscritter would love for Obama to appoint someone so they could raise tons of donated dough and have another bloody flag for them to raise in upcoming re-election campaigns. Maybe that is what McConnell wants.
