If you really think about it, what was CSP's recommendation really worth? I bet he was LHAO when ML actually hired DA as the HC.....because he knew one day it was possible he would go against him.....poetic justice (especially if you believe the theory that there was a power struggle between CSP and Loomis at the end, which I think REBELMAX has hinted about in the past)....
Naw, I think CSP recommended him because DA was his friend...
