Maintaining Aggro as OT in raids

As a protection warrior, I can't seem to keep any decent amount of aggro in a raid when the MT is a druid and OT is a DK.
The MT would pull, I'd charge in, Thunderclap and cleave followed by shockwave. However, the MT and DK OT would always keep aggro. I end up rage-starved and fall further behind. I'd have to taunt to get anything working.
The same problem applies when pallies lay down consecrate.

I could switch my hand enchant to include 2% threat but I just can't seem to keep up with them. Any suggestions? Would re-speccing do anything or am I stuck as 3d fiddle?

My warrior isn't 80 yet, so please correct me if I'm wrong here, but...
If the MT or OT is pulling so far away in threat, anyway, the -10% threat from Vigilance doesn't seem like it would be a big deal, and it would help keep the 3rd tank 3rd on threat. More importantly, it would give that 3rd tank basically no CD on Taunt, to help pick up those mobs that run for the healers or DPS.

Ok, I see where you're going with that. I was basing my idea on a strat from Tanking Tips, I think, suggesting a warrior should pop Vigilance on the MT in Sarth, then use the constant taunts to pick up adds.
Alternatively the fact that you slack on TPS doesnt mean you can steal 10% of MT TPS.
In which case, you have 0 TPS on the boss, so Vigilance would at least put you on his list. That's more what I was thinking, a scenario where the warrior is
not
on the boss.
But I'll be good and keep it off the MT unless someone tells me otherwise.
