What Happened to the USA Democrat and UK Labour Alliance?

Related to this item Hillary Clinton Making Our Relations With the UK Worse

In the past there has been a natural relationship between Republicans and the Conservatives in the UK. There has been a natural alliance between the Democrat party and the UK Labour Party. As to that recall the assistance Labour got from Dem operatives in the Clinton years.

What in the world has happened. We had the GOP Bush that got on well with the Labour Leader Blair and now we have the Democrat Obama not appearing to give a big hoot what the Labour party thinks or their concerns.

After Bush left I think there was the perception things would return to the normal state of affairs. It appears the Current administration is throwing a monkey wrench into that.
