Roughly two weeks and 2 million viewings since the controversial “Hillary 1984” video was posted on YouTube, its maker has stepped forward: It’s Phil de Vellis, an Internet professional, and he’s “proud of it.” In a post on the Huffington Post Web site on Wednesday afternoon, de Vellis — a strategist with an Internet company that has ties to the Barack Obama campaign — claimed that he is “parkridge47,” the person responsible for posting the anti-Clinton video on YouTube. Sen. Clinton was born in Park Ridge, Ill., in 1947.
