If a person is old enough to vote but didn't, then they have no right to complain about the outcome.

The Democrats put a LOT of money and effort into encouraging young people to register and vote - thinking that the "young vote" would help swing the election in Kerry's direction. But either MTV, Puff Daddy, and other celebs failed to motivate enough young voters with their message, or they didn't vote the way the Democrats expected. The polls show that Kerry didn't anywhere NEAR the number of "young votes" the Democrats were hoping for.
