Partisanship is when a politician sides with his party's affiliation, even though he thinks differently. For example; Politician A is in the Republican party. Politician A is Pro-choice, but the Republican party is not. He also knows that if he sides with pro-choice, it may cost him the election, so he goes along with the party and fights against abortion, even though his views differ.
