Kerry obviously did not understand the historical meaning of Scaramouche and probably just watched the movie by the same name in the 50s.
Scaramouche was a stock character in a form of improvisational theater during the 16th to 18 centuries.
The character usually wore a black velvet cape, a mask, black trousers,shirt and hat.
I'm sure Kerry thinks of himself as a Zorro type ,when in reality,he's a Zero. Photoshop, anyone ??
Scaramouche was usually the servant of another character and is usually described as a boastful coward.
For comparison:
President George H Bush has an Aronow Cigarette boat, named " Fidelity."
President George W. Bush has a bass boat in Texas, IIRC.
