I expect “courageous” McCain, Graham and Collins to oppose using the nuclear option to again “save the Senate.” Remember when the nuclear option was being considered in 2005 when Democrats were blocking Bush’s conservative judicial nominees, the nuclear option was blocked by these three plus 4 other RINOs that are no longer in the Senate. Along with 7 Democrats, they formed the infamous Gang of 14 to block the nuclear option and work out a compromise.

Hope that I am wrong.
