Virginia Republicans claimed the moral high ground this week as a blackface scandal left the state's Democratic leadership on the brink of implosion.
But now a racist yearbook has come back to haunt a top Republican.
It has emerged that Senate Majority Leader Tommy Norment edited a 1968 college publication chock-full of slurs and blackface photos.
The bombshell comes after Virginia's Republican party said top Democrats had lost the authority to govern.
The uproar has shaken the state capitol in Richmond, which still grapples with its painful past as the capital of the pro-slavery Confederacy during the American Civil War.
Mr Norment, 72, was the managing editor of the Bomb, Virginia Military Institute's yearbook.
The Republican Senate leader denies he is among those pictured in blackface in the publication.
But the yearbook was strewn with slurs against black and Asian students, according to the Virginian-Pilot newspaper, which broke the story.

Exactly. Nobody complained about them being cannon fodder and they died in disproportionate numbers.

The Vietnam War saw the highest proportion of blacks ever to serve in an American war. During the height of the U.S. involvement, 1965-69, blacks, who formed 11 percent of the American population, made up 12.6 percent of the soldiers in Vietnam. The majority of these were in the infantry, and although authorities differ on the figures, the percentage of black combat fatalities in that period was a staggering 14.9 percent, a proportion that subsequently declined. Volunteers and draftees included many frustrated blacks whose impatience with the war and the delays in racial progress in America led to race riots on a number of ships and military bases, beginning in 1968, and the services' response in creating interracial councils and racial sensitivity training. . . .
