Bounce back from YouTube
Phil de Vellis created the kind of buzz that media consultants dream of when he created the YouTube video depicting Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) in a less than flattering light. That stunt also cost him his job with Blue State Digital, a media shop working on Illinois Democratic Sen. Barack Obama's presidential bid.
De Vellis wasn't out of work for long. He is now at a different Democratic media consulting firm, Murphy Putnam Media. That firm works on behalf of a different White House hopeful: New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson.
