Promises can become targets for the opposition, even if they have little chance of being carried out in their original form. Which leaves some voters wondering: Do policy goals pitched on the campaign trail matter? Plus: The insurance boogeyman creeps up behind condos and a Pennsylvania town navigates life without a coal plant.
