I'm not sure how I feel about privatizing the TVA. 

It's a very complicated issue.  I certainly don't think the Federal government should be in effect guaranteeing the bonds of an energy utility for only one area of the country.  That's not fair.  I also wonder whether the TVA model is keeping electricity rates too low and failing to invest in capital improvements. 

What exactly is so great about the current setup of the TVA?

Affordable electricity/not being at the mercy of private power parasites?
