RE :”Great...and when we retake the Senate next year we will defund ObamaCare with a 51-vote margin”

The Senate rules already allow that under budget reconciliation. In fact the final Obamacare bill was passed that way by changing only budget related items.

If GOP takes the Senate and makes those changes to rules then in theory they could completely REPEAL all of Obamacare with 51. Then Obama vetoes it.

If they really think they will lose the senate, whats to stop them from switching back to the old rules again just before the election?
