JUNEAU -- Sarah Palin will turn 47 on Friday, and her political action committee wants donors to help give her a "special surprise."

In a solicitation letter Wednesday, SarahPAC Treasurer Tim Crawford says nothing is more important to Palin than making sure her PAC has the funds needed to elect "more common-sense conservatives in 2011."

The e-mail makes no mention of any possible presidential ambitions that Palin may have. She has said she's considering a run.

Crawford writes that a donation will be a welcome surprise on Palin's birthday, considering what he calls "the increasingly vicious attacks from her enemies on the Left."

He says that Palin, like Ronald Reagan before her, is despised by the left for admitting her faith in God, being "unabashedly proud" of America and fighting federal overreach.
