5 00 eastern in the cnn newsroom. We begin with republican president ial candidate donald trump at the center of another political controversy. This time, its a comment he made last night to my colleague don lemon about fox news host and debate moderator megyn kelly. Listen. She came out there reading her little script and trying to, you know, be tough and be sharp, and when you meet her you realize shes not very tough and shes not very sharp. Shes zippo. She did push you. Pushed a lot of people. But what is it with you and megyn kelly . I just dont respect her as a journalist. I have no respect for her. I dont think shes very good. Shes highly overrated. When i came out there, what am i doing . Im not getting paid for this. I go out there and they start saying lift up your arm and you know, i didnt know there would be 24 million people. If i knew it was going to be a big crowd, because i get big crowds, i get big ratings, they call me the ratings machine, so i have, you know, she gets

Im jim sciutto in again tonight for erin burnett. Outfront tonight, trump winning over women. The run away leader in the poll of Republican Voters even among female voters and while many of the gop president ial candidates fanned out with Campaign Events and speeches aimed at winning over voters, there is a big challenge ahead increasingly focused on one candidate who did not hit the trail today and that is donald trump. In a new cnn poll out this morning, trump widening his lead among Republican Voters, holding now a double digit lead over jeb bush with ben carson, marco rubio and scott walker in Single Digits and despite a string of offensive, sometimes vulgar comments about women, including most recently his blood remarks regarding megyn kelly, the cnn poll finds 60 of republican women voters have a favorable view of trump. Athena, trump dominating. How are the other candidates responding today . The other candidates arent happy that trump is getting all the attention. They are cons

Well, i understand the Trump Campaign made it official earlier this evening, putting out a press release, announcing that donald trump will essentially be holding a counter programming rival event across town in des moines, at drake university. And its going to be benefitting veterans organizations, according to the Trump Campaign. Now we should point out, were at this event with donald trump behind me in south carolina. He has not really addressed this debate controversy at all. He has only touched on it a couple times, saying he refuses to talk about it. He noted the fact there have been a number of debates so far, and that he feels like he was treated unfairly in that debate that featured fox news and megyn kelly. Thats essentially it. But, you know, when i asked a senior Trump Campaign official earlier this evening, is there any c
