“The Problem With the House is really a direct result of the Rules of the Senate and the need for 60 votes to pass anything that the Dems object too.”
Did not seem to stop the dems.
That's true. But the core reason is basically the same: The GOP Fear of a Government Shutdown. The Dems have no such constrain. They also assume that a Government shutdown will hurt the Republicans.
We need to get past that belief by actually testing it. That's not going to happen with the existing cloture rule in the Senate.
