No, the Democrats chose the candidate that pulled in by far the most
votes during the primaries.

Then why does Calif Bill (and so many other Republicans) regret it now?

Are you sure about this? My understanding is that voter turn out was very
low.

Turn out was high. Bush got more votes (61 or 62 million) than any
President in history. Kerry also got more votes than any President in
history...but still lost by 3 million votes.

Turnout was high in that respect because there are more people of
voting age in the U.S. than ever before.
