The Nuclear Option

Mitch McConnell:
"Senate Democrats are getting ready to do permanent damage to this body,” McConnell warned, and made a morbid reference regarding Reid. “No majority leader wants written on his tombstone that he presided over the end of the Senate.”
You know, minority leaders shouldn't want this either.  Particularly minority leaders that used to be majority leaders.

And as far as I'm concerned, the "end of the Senate" occurred when you, as minority leader, decided that nothing would pass without a 60 vote majority.

You want to maintain the Senate as it was, Mitch?  Stop screwing around and start doing the people's business.
