Even so, the decision makers in this fight are the 168 RNC members whose votes at the party’s winter meeting in January will determine Steele’s fate.

Why not? They have taken over the whole political process anyway.
The list of reasons Steele is criticized is long: Detractors say the RNC has misspent millions of dollars and failed to properly report its debt; they also point to numerous controversies that have rocked the committee under Steele, including an incident this year in which $2,000 in RNC money was spent at a bondage-themed strip club in California.
Corruption and waste in politics? Yer kidding.
