paladins now, since 3.0, get 30% spell damage from stamina. ie if you have +100 stamina you will get "for free" 30 spell damage. Paladin tanks now itemize exactly the same as warriors -- get enough defense to be capped (not sure what it is from 70-80, but you will need A TON -- like close to 600 i think?), then just focus on stamina, strength, and dodge/block/parry (avoidance). It makes no sense anymore to ever enchant, gem, or seek out items that have +spell damage -- you will get PLENTY automatically from stamina.
For example I just picked up at level 74 yesterday a very, very nice tanking weapon http://www.wowhead.com/?item=44735 - easy 5 minute quest you can do with a team. I picked up slow axe because it helps hammer of righteousness blows, some tanks will prefer the faster mace (imo the mace is more for warrior tanks but up to you). I was wearing the s2 spell dmg mage up until then, since I didn't really have a good "warrior tank" weapon, but the new axe is far and away better at helping me get threat.
Touched by the Light:
increases spellpower by 30% of sta
its not that we don't need spell power, but we have different options of achieving it now
Okey i read this and it helped me out a GREAT deal!

Get 540 defense for uncritable at 80.
Your problem is not your amount of threat, it's the anub'ar skirmisher in the pack. They do a charge / aggro dump and are not tauntable. Not only are they not tauntable, they appear to be focus on the charged party member no matter how much threat you put out.
I have been dealing with them by keeping group somewhat close and stunning while trying to nuke them fast enough.
