And it should require -- we should require 60 votes for Gorsuch's appointment.</s>WOLF BLITZER, CNN ANCHOR: But then you know the Republican majority leader could do the, what's called the nuclear option, change the rules, which would require a simple majority.</s>SANDERS: Well, I would hope that he doesn't do that. The Democrats also have power to do that. Democrats did change the rules for a lot of reasons, and I supported that. But what Democrats said is when you're dealing with a lifetime appointment to the United States Supreme Court, such an important position, it should be bipartisan.
