Top RNC aide resigns, claiming that Steele has done great damage to Republican Party

A copy of the letter is available here. He suggests that Steele's behavior resulted in the Republican wins being much more limited than they could have been.

“In the last two non-presidential cycles of 2002 and 2006, the RNC raised $284 million and $243 million respectively. “So far this cycle, the RNC has reported raising just $170 million. Less than $18 million (10.53%) of that total came from contributions of $1,000 or more, collected from a mere 5,379 donors. This is a fraction of either the previous cycles.” . . .
