Libs assert the GOP CANNOT change ObamaCare. Here is why they are dead wrong.

My counter discussion is in green.  The remainder are points made by the foreigners at Think Progress,  a Marxist/Socialist blog.  

1) Romney has no authority to issue waivers. According to the law, HHS (together with the IRS) have waiver authority, but only if the states meet very specific requirements

Obama has set the precedent for the use of executive orders . . . . they can be used for whatever purpose the prez deems fits.  The clowns at "Think Progress" want you to believe that they believe in law and order,  when,  in point of fact, they are anarchists.  More than this,  there is nothing in the law that prohibits the new Congress from rewriting the law or parts of the law.  To say otherwise is just plain silly.  

2) Congress can’t repeal the full law through reconciliation. Without the necessary 60 votes in the Senate for full repeal, Republicans are pledging to use a budget reconciliation bill to undo the ACA. But this process would only apply to the budget-related elements of the law and would thus leave many portions — including the mandate — intact.

Understand that the Senate,  via "reconciliation"  can choke the life out of ObamaCare.  The Attorney General can refuse to prosecute and the libs at the IRS can be replaced.  (Reconciliation is a legislative tool that applies to budget matters,  at least it did before Obama,  and the vote requirement is just 51)

3) Republicans have nothing to replace it with. David Frum explains that since the expansion of coverage provisions go into effect in 2014, Romney would have just one year to both repeal and replace the law.

The "start date" for ObamaCare is not written in stone.  The 113th Congress can postpone significant dates or move them ahead a hundred years,  if they so decide. 

4) Americans support Obamacare’s provisions. While Americans may not like “Obamacare” — and the political process of passing it — they do support its major provisions and are likely to resist any effort by Republicans to take away their benefits.

Americans support portability (taking insurance from one job to the next) ,  serious tort reform,  the end of border restrictions opening up opportunities to shop for the lowest bidder,  health care savings plans for some.  There is plenty that the American people like about the GOP's plans.
