John Cusack has a challenge for you.

The actor's latest foray into the political arena is a 30-second video debuting on CNN and Bravo tomorrow for MoveOn.org in which he encourages people to take the Bush-McCain Challenge, a five-question online quiz that presents how similar the president and White House hopeful really are.

“MoveOn.org members, and millions of other Americans, including me, share a common belief that Americans just cannot take another four years of Bush policies,” Cusack says in a release. “I think the Bush-McCain Challenge gives people the opportunity to check the record for themselves.”

A McCain spokesman referred questions about the ad to the Republican National Committee.

“Here’s an honest pop quiz: Who opposed funding our troops in Iraq? And whose agenda is out-of-touch with average Americans?" RNC spokesman Alex Conant wrote in an email. "Answer: Both Barack Obama and MoveOn.org.”
