Listen, because of that darned synopsis, I knew throughout the movie that they weren't gonna work out. I mean it's ridiculous. They are together almost throughout the movie, and yet you know that that's gonna change.
That *beep* synopsis is the MOVIE. They have a wonderful romance and their politics drive them apart. That's it! No need to watch.

Change that rubbish. Please

In fact, their politics has little to do with what drives them apart. Hubbell is pretty much a man w/ no real opinion one way or the other. What drove them apart was their different approach to things -- how passionate she was about everything, and how the opposite he was. NOT their politics at all.
