WH saddled VP Biden with the dirty job of pressing frsutrated Dems to vote for the debt limit bill some of them regard as a sell-out.

After meeting with House Dems, Biden said "they expressed all their frustration." He said he'd be frustrated too, in their place.

Biden says he told Dems the debt limit deal has :"one overwhelming redeeming feature:" the issue can't come up again until 2013.

Biden says getting the debt limit out of the way till 2013 "has nothing to do with elections."


Biden seems to have played a key role in all this. He is probably not a happy camper either.
