Ok. Now I’m confused. We don’t want cloture?

NO!! If cloture passes with 60 votes, they'll have a cakewalk to get 50 votes for final passage in the Senate before sending it to the House. And the of the sixty votes for cloture, they can let 10 vote against the final if they're too afraid of their own voters to vote yes on the final bill.
