and everything else (not counting reconciliation or Rules changes) requires 60 votes to proceed (cloture) - meaning ALL (D)s & (I)s that caucus with (D)s + 9 (R)s in order to get anything even up for debate and vote.

So yes, as long as Democrats have less than 60 elected members (that might include (I)s that caucus with us), then he is still a critical piece of the puzzle.
