It would appear that Rush upset the moderates/liberals in the Republican Party:

Shame on Steele; this makes me have little/no respect for him. The RNC can kiss my membership good bye.

GOP Chairman Michael Steele Calls Limbaugh Comments "Incendiary and Ugly" - Video 2/28/09

That is a HUGE disappointment. Nothing Rush said was ugly. It never is. People just don't listen carefully. I am so disappointed in Steele over this.

So much for nerves of “Steele”..

He and others who think the same waydo NOT grasp the significance of what’s going on in the country. Fools.

Just yesterday, Steele was a conservative.

Steele was a mistake. I believe he’s a lot more moderate than most people who supported him thought. Rush is giving the democRATS a dose of their own medicine. He was awesome.

My email to Michael Steele:

Mike,

You’ve got to be kidding, right?

What Rush Limbaugh said was powerful and timely.

I am a proud conservative. I regularly read FreeRepublic.com and it would do you a lot of good to do so also. You could learn a great deal there and also come to know what real Republicans are thinking, not the nonsense that New York and Washington Republicans In Name Only (RINOs) are thinking. We lost in 2006 and 2008 precisely because of RINO thinking. I am not a loser and I am getting very tired of this RINO loser mentality that thinks appeasing the press is the way to influence. The press is bound hide and sinew to the Democratic party and should be treated as Democrats—our ideological adversaries. They’re no doubt taking great satisfaction in your remarks about Limbaugh that hurt us immensely. For shame!

You are taking the party down the WRONG path if you truly believe what Limbaugh said was incendiary and ugly.

I want you to resign and let a real conservative take over. Conservative principles and values are the winning ticket for us, not attacks on those espousing them.

Until such time, not a dime from me, and I will do my best to convince all the Alabamian Republicans I know to stop giving money to you RINOs in D.C.

Signed, A Proud Conservative Republican

If I have to pick Steele vs. Rush, I pick Rush.

I liked the idea of Steele but he is proving that he will expand the GOP by appealing to RINOs while marginalizing conservatives.

Did Michael Steele read a "synopsis" of Rush's speech om "Media Matters" or on the DU website?

I watched the video and putting everything into context I don't see Steele ditching Rush in a big way. More like a prissy little slap. I would also bet that if asked about Rush's speech Steele will applaud it as much as any of us do.Just a guess.
