Conservative Republicans in the House lost big time today. Nancy Pelosi won through her leadership skill in holding her Democratic caucus firm, getting them to support John Boehner's one-week extension last Friday as we were on the brink of Homeland Security shutdown -- with the understanding that they would get a vote on a clean DHS funding bill this week.
Today, they had that clean vote, without the poison pill attachment of gutting Obama's executive action on immigration. It passed decisively 257-167.
