"Every dollar counts," says Tammy Li, whose parents are helping fund her Aug. 30 wedding at the Madison Hotel in Morristown, N.J., as they struggle to sell their house. Li and fiancé Bernie Tang are tamping down costs simply by being flexible with the time.

When the government...
Hillary Clinton still believes that the realities of economic hardship can quash the politics of hope, that American voters will choose cheaper gas before inspiration, that stadium-sized crowds will never matter as much as the price of milk. In an era of tight wallets, she believes the fight of a hardscrabble realist is more powerful than the potential of a visionary...
