On December 24, 2009, the Senate passed the Obamacare bill by a 60 to 39 vote.

This 60th seat would come unexpectedly, when Senator Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania switched his party affiliation from Republican to Democrat on April 28, 2009. On December 24, 2009, the Senate passed the Obamacare bill by a 60 to 39 vote. It would take another three months for the House and Senate bills to be reconciled. President Obama signed the ACA into law on March 23, 2010.

...democrats didn't pass obamacare with 60 votes and the republicans don't have to have 60 to repeal it. I don't care if they replace it or not. Obamacare is a tax designed to pay for some citizens healthcare with other citizens money. The folks the dems have chosen to fleece are the young, healthy just getting started off in life who do not need it and for the most part cannot afford it. They give to those who have nothing by robbing those who have almost nothing, then give themselves Medals for being compassionate.
