Then it goes to straight convention voting and the RNC superdelegates decide it if the non-Bush has a less than overwhelming majority of the votes in convention.

And this is exactly why a pledge to not run 3rd party should not be made. The super delegates have to look strait into the eye of the storm and realize that business as usual means the destruction of the party.

I didn't know that, but I'm sure Trump must. That explains his decision not to agree to support the nominee or rule out a third party run if the GOPe treats him "unfairly". If he has the most delegates he can tell the superdelegates that if they give it to someone else he will go 3rd party.
