If the document specifies a difference between "Party" and "party" with a 
defining statement, such as "the Whig Party (hereafter referred to as "the 
Party")," then "Mike" is correct.  In the absence of such a statement, there is 
no inherent difference in context and capitalization may be interpreted as 
merely an effort to make something more conspicuous.
