How do you choose All Stars?

How do you choose players on your All Star ballot? I was talking with a Cubs fan about All Star balloting so far. I asked him about the favoritism towards Cubs this year( Fukudome & Soriano #1,2 in OF,Mark DeRosa over Dan Uggla) He thought it was all fair.Then he told me he voted all Cubs on every ballot he entered. Using 6 different Email addresses he voted 150 times all for Cubs. Said he does it that way every year, he just wants to see as many of "his guys"as possible. After I told him he was an idiot I started to wonder how you guys vote.

I take any superstars on my team. Chipper and McCann

Then I choose whoever is having the best year of the remaining players. Tie breakers go to the Braves or anyone not the Mets or Phillies.

It just seems very childish for anyone who follows the game to vote for the home guys across the board. I couldn't vote Diaz, Kotsay or Kelly Johnson.

Larry, my style is close to yours,lean towards Braves,lean towards classy ageing superstars,but only when it's within reason.

I don't vote because the Yankees could have 20 wins at the break and we would still see 12 Yankees on the AL squad.

Point being, it's a meaningless popularity contest that I don't care for. I watch the games, but I just don't see the point of voting.
