I am not sure that they would as this seems to go against the 22nd Amendment. While the 22nd doesn't specifically address an appointed acting president I doubt that the new congress would be inclined to keep Clinton around nor would they want to create more problems while trying to straighten out the current mess.
I am also not sure. It's the reason I was asking if this might be a way around the 22nd. After all it isn't an election but an appointment by Congress until the election is resolved. ____________________________________________________________________ He is able who thinks he is able.
