Just checked, and no candidate for Governor has a statement on their website regarding the one year anniversary of one of the worst man-made environmental disasters in U.S. history which occurred right here in Tennessee. The date also passed without mention by Gov. Bredesen.
UPDATE: Nothing from Rep. Davis, Rep. Duncan, Sen. Alexander, or Sen. Corker, either.
