If you would actually read the site you might notice that he's fully explained how he does things. He uses the most recent poll, which lately is often Zogby. He's admitted that this presents a problem and created an averaged map:

Also in the current map he is averaging Zogby and Gallup for Ohio and a few other swing states.
Your comments about Zogby dissenting in 2000 are odd. Remember that Gore actually won the popular vote. Zogby was one of only 2 pollsters to predict a Gore popular vote win. If anything this proves that Zogby uses better techniques.
Yes, Tanenbaum has admitted he is partisan, but his site takes every effort to show both sides. At least give him some respect for the effort he's made.
