Sky News host Paul Murray says Labor's Kristina Keneally is the lady who has shown that there is "no limit to how far you can fail up" in Australian politics.
Mr Murray spoke about how, following Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese's recent Shadow Cabinet reshuffle, Ms Keneally is now Labor's Shadow Accountability minister.
Mr Murray said the move now means that "she can talk on anything, all the time".
"She's effectively going to be like the 2.0 opposition leader".
"As if the Australian people have not already had quite a few opportunities to tell us what they think of the politician who continues to fail upwards.
"The one who, of course, was the captain/coach of the worst performance in the history of a state government, with the New South Wales government being completely flushed oh so many years ago".
Sky News host Paul Murray says Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese has come up with a slogan that is supposedly set to "change everything" for the Labor Party.
The party is "on your side," according to the new slogan, Mr Murray said.
"Wow," Mr Murray said.

A fresh battle is poised to erupt over priceless heritage assets managed by the Sydney Harbour Federation Trust, with a community group warning that draft federal legislation affecting the trustâs leasing policies could render it increasingly vulnerable to private developers.
At issue is whether the trust should be able to lease out some of its sites and properties for periods of 35 years or more in order to attract private investment, together with proposals that critics say will reduce parliamentary scrutiny of such agreements.
Mark Butler, one of the party’s strongest advocates for ambitious carbon targets, will lose the portfolio of climate change and energy after months of dispute over whether Labor should make a new pledge to cut emissions by 2030 or 2035.
