Upon landing the erj-135 first officer noticed a steering inoperative message and the aircraft was stopped while still partially on the runway. Despite several radio calls to ground control reiterating the fact that a runway incursion existed; and assurance from ground control that the tower had been notified; several aircraft landed on the compromised runway.

Narrative:
Upon landing the 'steering inop' message displayed as the nose was touching down. As we were turning off the runway; the airplane continued to turn and we stopped at the edge of the taxiway and runway while performing the 'uncommanded swerving on the ground' memory items. The left main gear was on the hold-short line and the nose just outside. This meant a portion of our aircraft wing and tail was over the hold short line. I immediately notified ground as we had already switched; and declined emergency services. Upon seeing the first aircraft land on that runway; I re-notified ground that we were on the runway hold short line and they simply responded that the tower controller had been notified. Several more aircraft landed; so we decided to give it one more shot at getting off and we were successful in clearing the area. We called operations and were towed to the gate. If in fact a runway incursion actually happened; I could have been a little more clear that we were still on the runway. Tower could have sent all aircraft on final around; a little more extreme; or I also could have switched back to tower and said on that frequency that we were technically still on the runway.
