I think there are many Catholics that feel the same as Biden. The Roman Catholic church is not in full harmony on issues of birth control and abortion. US bishops have varying positions on the issue. Some hardline and some liberal. Reckon JFK, a Catholic said it best when responding to Republican accusations that he would impose his beliefs into US law.
Kennedy said: "I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute; where no Catholic prelate would tell the president -- should he be a Catholic -- how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishioners for whom to vote."
