CF has an old data validation scheme where hidden form fields with special names will cause other form fields to be seen by the system as required. One of those special names is anything that ends in _date. So if the field was todays_date the CF server would think that you have a different form field called today that must have a valid date in it (the _date part). Just remove the _date or change it to _dates or something else and no problem. check out the docs, chapter 6, validating data types.
