If you thought Mitt Romney was the only presidential candidate whose problems were piling up in the final stretch of the election campaign, think again.

President Barack Obama is facing pressures that threaten to chip away at a foreign policy record his aides hoped would be immune to Republican attack.

The White House is increasingly concerned but isn't hitting the panic button, yet. Administration officials are heartened by Republican challenger Romney's recent foreign policy stumbles and doubt Obama's critics will gain traction.
