Tweeting Ahead of Himself: Joe Miller Slammed for Prophetic Posts on Twitter

"Think I'll do some house hunting while I'm in DC."

Alaska GOP Senate nominee Joe Miller has deleted at least four tweets published on his campaign's official Twitter account Wednesday night. The tweets were deleted after Miller came under fire for the prophetic nature of the messages, which hint at an all-but-certain win come November, according to CNN.

The controversial tweets read:

"Think I'll do some house hunting while I'm in DC."

"Guess I should pick out some office furniture, as well, while in DC."

"Then there's matter of a name plaque for the door."

"My sincere appreciation for the warm welcome, including from future colleagues in DC."

Miller's opponent, Democrat Scott McAdams, didn't take too kindly to the predictive tweets. He fired back Thursday with his own message via Twitter:

"[Joe Miller:] While you're in DC picking out office furniture, I'm in Anchorage introducing my plan to get Alaskans back to work," the tweet read.

CNN also reports that a spokesman for Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who lost to Miller in the GOP primary and is now running as a write-in candidate, said, "for someone who wants to be a freshman senator, this is pretty sophomoric."

And according to The Hill, Murkowski released a radio ad on Friday attacking Miller for drape measuring: "Wait a minute, Joe ... you might want to wait until you hear from the 88% of us back here in Alaska who didn't vote for you. That plaque on the door still reads ... MUR-KOW-SKI."

Miller's campaign spokesman, Randy DeSoto, told CNN on Thursday that "a volunteer was responsible for the tweets last night and will no longer have access to the account."

Miller was in Washington for fundraising events and meetings with Republican officials.
