Maybe Dumbledore has no choice?  There are times where Lucius has managed to
push things on Hogwarts before (ex. Dumbledore removed as headmaster, Hagrid
sent to Azkaban, and to a lesser degree Draco as Keeper) through his
'influence' on the Board of Governors.  From what I gather, the rest of the
WW still considers him a an upstanding citizen (Fudge, anyone?), so maybe
he'll go to Fudge and reason that since Hogwarts has had problems with
keeping DADA teachers, to give Narcissa a try.
