DescriptionWASHINGTON (AP) -- With just two weeks until Election Day, the White House sought to ease political anxieties about security in Iraq but rejected calls from lawmakers for a dramatic policy shift.

"We're on the verge of chaos, and the current plan is not working," Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-South Carolina, said in an Associated Press interview. U.S. and Iraqi officials should be held accountable for the lack of progress, said Graham, a Republican who is a frequent critic of the administration's policies.
