John McCain never actually said the UN should pass resolutions against Russia.  He said the UN should draft up a bunch of resolutions against Russia, that Russia would then veto to embaress Russia on the world stage.

Which is quite similar.  Though somewhat different as one gives you the idea he knows how the UN works.

John McCain knows that said resolution won't pass but thinks it's a good idea for political gain... vs Obama who thinks the UN can actually get something done.

I doubt that very much. There was nothing to stop the Russian agression against Georgia. However, both wanted to appear statesmanlike and "on the situation" without actually doing anything, because they can't. In the end, it didn't matter, did it as they weren't involve in the situation.

"The United States and our allies should continue efforts to bring a resolution before the UN Security Council condemning Russian aggression, noting the withdrawal of Georgian troops from South Ossetia, and calling for an immediate ceasefire and the withdrawal of Russian troops from Georgian territory. We should move ahead with the resolution despite Russian veto threats, and submit Russia to the court of world public opinion."

The full quote.

And if you read the full article he has a lot more to say in regards to other avenues of pressuring Russia, he wasn't falling back on a single hope with the UN SC.
