The important thing about the "two-thirds of the Senators present and voting" rule is that the Dems have keep 28 Seats in the chamber at any given time.   The Republicans only have to keep one person in there at any given time.   If they don't, they risk not only only losing the vote on the nomination, but perhaps most of their debate rights for the remainder of the term.  After a few days, I doubt if they will be able to hold it.
