You're partly right on the first point you make. The fact that the Governor's daughter works there will bring some amount of new business, if only from people hedging their bets.

On the second issue, "deserving it" should have everything to do with it. I mean, everything objective is equal in the hypothetical: same grades, same school, same experience level. If you don't hire the one more deserving of the job by some criteria, be it quality of their suit, some unique evidence of hard work or sacrifice, what are you left with: Did they drool the soup?
