Middle East unrest presents foreign policy challenges for Obama
Yet in just two months, Americans will head to the polls to vote for the Presidency and the latest polls have Republican candidate Mitt Romney and Barack Obama neck and neck.

The latest attack in Libya that left four Americans dead, one of them being the Ambassador to Libya, has now put the President's foreign policy practices, which have often been criticized, front in center in the Presidential debate.

Many GOP officials sought to fit the attacks in Libya to say Obama’s leadership skills are lacking.

His opponent, Romney came out and said the President should not be apologizing.

Meanwhile, democratic strategists have rejected the assaults and are trying to defend the president's foreign policies.

Regardless, political analyst says this is bad news for the President.

Republicans say the Americans voters are sure to read this as a weakness and failure by the Obama Administration, still many analyst say Romney's statements will serve him damage, because he lacks temperament and judgment skills.
