about. when they look at exactly what may have caused whitney houston s death, the autopsy is complete. the results are on hold. they re waiting for toxicology reports which they say could take up to eight weeks or longer. whitney houston was found in a bathtub at the beverly hilton hotel on saturday late afternoon. there were some reports that maybe she drowned an there are some sources who said it could have been a combination of drugs and alcohol. radar online is saying that police found prescription drugs in the room. lorazepam, a generic version of valium, xanax, valium. the coroner though is not commenting and says he will not comment until the toxicology results in in in roughly eight weeks. last night though the music industry honored whitney at the grammys. it opened with a prayer from the host, ll cool j. and although she is gone too soon, we remain truly blessed to have been touched by her beautiful spirit and to have her lasting legacy of music to cherish and sh
it s x factor this year because there s a game changer now in the santorum momentum that s happening reet now and cpac is a very dynamic place. if a person has a speech that takes over the place, it could change everything. i was at the straw poll, the florida straw poll about three months ago when herman cain won. and that surprised everybody. and that started his momentum going forward until the herman cain implosion occurred. and i think that right now rick santorum has a unique opportunity to gain unprecedented momentum because mitt romney has chosen not to connect with the conservative grass roots. the tea party right, so mitt romney is going to give a speech but he s also met with conservatives because of all those things that you say. he s kind of getting in to get a one-on-one message here sort of private meetings. and then, number two, rick soon santorum has to deliver a message that leverages off the momentum. how does he do that? well, this crowd yesterday wh
