Senate Republicans appear to be warming to an extreme measure to overcome Democrat obstruction—the "nuclear option" of overriding the 60-vote threshold required to bring a bill to a final vote.

"My fellow conservatives and I have proudly used the 60-vote threshold to protect the country from all sorts of bad ideas and dangerous policies," Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, wrote in an opinion article for The New York Post published Wednesday.

"But when the reality on the ground changes, leaders must take stock and adapt."
