Savannah Morning News endorses Hecht. Says Hecht has behaved himself. He has what?

The Savannah Morning News wrote its editorial endorsement of Greg Hecht for lieutenant governor a couple of days too soon, noting:

Ralph Reed and Casey Cagle shouldn't be running for Georgia's lieutenant governor. They should be running to the nearest car wash to hose off.

The two Republicans haven't just gone negative. At times, they've gone nuclear. By contrast, the Democrats who are running for this second-tier post, which is wide open because of Lt. Gov. Mark Taylor's decision to run for governor, have stuck to the issues and behaved themselves.

On the same day that this assessment comes out in the Savannah Morning News, the ajc's Political Insider has an article entitled "The real mud flies on Wednesday." This article contains links to two ads from the Hecht camp that the Political Insider introduces with the following comment:

While everyone’s been watching the mud fly in the Republican lieutenant governor’s race, what had seemed a relatively civil Democratic lieutenant governor’s race has erupted this week into a pretty nasty affair with two mail pieces from Greg Hecht’s campaign that are right up there with the other team in terms of negativity.
