As a Texan 'represented' by Cornyn, I'd like to say:

screw off.

“Cornyn also argued that there was a larger issue at play than whether the Democrats got a 60th Senate seat.
'That is the real question here. I realize it’s manifested itself in terms of who actually wins this seat, but I think that should be the focus.'”

No one believes you. We know you didn't want the 60 votes to happen. You REALLY didn't. MN had 7 months without representation in the Senate, all because your guy wouldn't concede as gracefully and in as timely a manner as Al Gore did.

The decision will close the books on the Election Contest. The Court will likely include an order for the signing and delivering of the Election Certificate.<br>Should the defeated former Senator wish to further the folly he embarked upon at the behest of the GOP Senatorial Committee, Coleman will have to bring a new case.

The Supreme Court of The United States does not hear cases about the Election to Office of United State Senators. That process, as Senator Cornyn should know, is reserved for the United States Senate by itself.
