Without even considering the Republicans, we know that 41 votes is insurmountable given the Senate filibuster rules.

Deathcare was passed by the reconciliation process, which needs 51 votes. It can be repealed through the same process.

Unfortunately, all we have is the shape-shifting Romney's word that he'll repeal the legislation his policies helped draft.
