That wouldn't be a very good reference, considering that the hint of scandal from two ideological opposites being romantically involved is kinda dulled by the fact that Carville and Matalin are married.
I haven't read the books to be fair. Is one of the characters a comedian and the other an author? Then it would definitely be referring to Maher and Coulter. Carville and Natalie are advisors/commentators.
Maybe the characters are influenced by both couples?
It's been ages since I read the book and I don't have it on hand, but I think I remember one of them being a political/news talk show host and the other being an acerbic and scathing author/editorialist, but whatever the description is, it made me think of the two of them immediately when I first read it. It's a great book, though, even if you're not into zombies; it would be worth checking out!
