This is when people make their political views part of their identity. If the party does something that you don't agree with you are faced with two choices (sub-consciously); either you change your views to match the party, or you invalidate part of your identity. Depending on how big a part of your identity you have subsumed to the party; the harder it is to break that part of your identity.
It is always a worrying sign when someone says "I am a "; rather than saying "I support ". Support can easily be modified and revoked, your identity is not so easy to change.
Solid.
