Textmate follows the OS X standard, you have two options,

First command-d will select Don't Save, this works in most OS X apps.

The other option may require that you have keyboard navigation turned
on (in they system preferences), in this case dialog buttons
surrounded by a blue ring are selected when you hit space, for my
installation TM defaults to having 'Don't Save' as the secondary
default (there's probably a better name).
