Lesson's learned:

The Commissioner's are appointed by the Governor, and serve at HIS PLEASURE. "HIS PLEASURE" means appeasing the tribes and lobbyist so that he gains political currency. The Commissioner's WILL NOT CROSS the governor.



I agree up to a point. I recall that the Senate has the ability to ratify the Governor's appointments thus removing them from "HIS PLEASURE." That such actions are seldom taken leaves Commissioners hung out and subject to the Governor's whims.
