Go for the caster pull. You should have furor, already. This will help out with your rage on the opener. You want to do a (you can cast regrowth on yourself too prior to this, giving you a bit of healer aggro)Starfire 3rd target, moonfire 2nd target, shift bear, mangle & maul the main target, FFF, then swipe a few times while hitting another maul on the main target, then use your second mangle on the 2nd target. For 4 targets, you want to wrath, moonfire, moonfire, & then shift. Or you can use a hurricane pull. Most people say barkskin & hurricane, but I prefer to stay at max distance and use1-2 ticks of the hurricane. I don't want the mobs to be hitting me while in caster form. Another I've seen, is wrath the main target, hurricane the whole group, then shift bear.
Against a 68 rogue, you will have a rough time keeping aggro. It's just the nature of threat. Get omen if you don't have it already.
The joys of tanking, is you will find a lot of trigger happy dps that pull early, jump dps while you are LoSing a caster mob, stunlocking one of your 2 pulled mobs so you don't get as much rage, etc... You will have to learn when to use your taunt, and when not to use your taunt. Personally, if I had a 68 rogue, I would tell him, I'm pulling, but he's tanking skull once out of stunlock if he doesn't know how to hold back his threat. He should be able to handle the dps from a mob that low anyways.
Mangle and maul are your threat generators. You want to spam maul as much as you can, or on 3 mobs, spam swipe after the mangle maul opener a few times, then back to threat with maul. Mangle off target, maul the other off target. Being quick about putting threat on off targets is a key skill.
Hope this helps! GL!
Edit-After looking at your armory, your gear is good. I recomend grinding ramps till you get the feral staff tho. I used it for tanking all the way up till I got the Ring of Blood staff. Your spec is ok, but I take predatory instincts and primal tenacity(definitely this) after Naturalist, Omen of Clarity, and intensity. Brutal impact is good to have for solo grinding too. With OOC, you can get a FFF, mangle, and 2 shreds during your pounce duration if OOC proc's. It actually does proc pretty often while in kitty form. And naturalist will help your threat with a base damage upgrade.

If I were you I would do 2 things, first off change the 12 AP gems to agility gems right away. That belt is the best all aroaund belt for druids until almost 70. Secondly, remove the talents in Savage Fury, Primal Tenacity and one from Predatory instincts and add 5 in naturalist and get omen of clarity. That 10% overall damage in naturalist is for everything whereas Savage fury is only for kitty Mangle. Omen of Clarity will help a lot on your dps AND your ability to hold threat.
