It happens but I'm not sure if any research has quantified the percentage of challenged projects where the primary cause of failure was having an ineffective PM...

I've seen projects without project charters or an authority document, especially in functional organizations.

If have seen many projects where the leader is changed, sometime it is more that some PMs are good at organizing projects but not so much on execution. Projects, especially large one, can require different type of leadership in the different phases.

The point is to define what does mean "the right person". Most of the times after defining the term you will see that is a matter of perception to qualify to somebody with this term.There are lot of things that could be outside the scope and amount of information of the person that are qualifing to somebody as "not right" that most of the time that qualification has no sense.
