Ward Cammack gave a deep and substantive speech to the Roane County Democratic Party. There's no question that Cammack knows his stuff and has powerful ideas that Tennessee would do well to embrace. If the Tennessee Governor's race can be purchased then this doesn't matter, but if the good people of this state get the chance to really decide what they want Tennessee to be in the future, then Kim McMillan will have an excellent advisor in Ward Cammack.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Ward Cammack endorses Gubernatorial Candidate Kim McMillan

Clarksville, Tennessee March 9, 2010 - Ward Cammack announced today that he is endorsing Kim McMillan in her campaign for Governor of Tennessee.

Cammack, a former candidate for governor, discontinued his campaign in December 2009. “Because of my time on the campaign trail, I know that Kim grasps the connection between jobs and sustainability and that we cannot afford to waste time. Kim is clearly determined to lead Tennessee into the Green Economy, and that is why I am endorsing her candidacy and making an immediate contribution,” Cammack said.

Cammack will act as an environmental policy advisor to the McMillan campaign. McMillan has a proven record on environmental issues and has received accolades on her legislative record from the Tennessee Conservation Voters organization. "A sustainable environmental and energy strategy will position our state to take advantage of the growing green economy and create the jobs of the future," said McMillan.
"I am honored to have Ward's advice and support," McMillan said. "He is a successful business man and has great knowledge and passion for a green economy in Tennessee. I look forward to engaging Ward in discussions about how we can create more green jobs, focus on conservation and position Tennessee as a leader in sustainable practices."
With only two Democrats left in the primary race, this endorsement among others signals the continuing momentum of the McMillan campaign for Governor.
