Bury your head a little deeper, and blame it all on the youth. I can't help it that I'm right. I was born like that.

I understand, really! I was increasingly right from the time I was 12 - by the time I reached 20 I had it all figured out. My parents, as much as I loved them and respected them, well, you know...

Sometime, around the time I got married and was working for 5 years, I was a little less self-righteous. By the time I had kids I was getting the parents disease my folks had - but they seemed to be getting retroactively smarter.

Anyway, campaign promises are a measure for voters to decide how badly politicians are lying to get their vote, and how gullible they want to be to get the politician of their choice in office - as opposed to the other guy. Come re-election time you can decide how pissed off you are at your guy for breaking all those "promises" versus risking letting that other guy win.

Certainly, demand your guy live up to his "promises" - but a duty? and obligation? ...
