Remember, there is a new sheriff in town. Bobby Jindal will have a big say in this selection.

And why would he? Do you believe the governor sticks a nose into every hiring at every university in the state? What, for "political" reasons?

[Membertou]

Do you think RA got his job without the approval of the governor at the time (EWE)? Of course, the governor will stick his nose in this.

Thats exactly how it works. The folks at LSUA&MC don't always get their way. Just as with the French House at LSUA&MC they considered it the number one priority but the governing committee that oversees such things disagreed and said no it should be #26 behind much more deserving projects.
