Django admin can't differentiate between empty string and None and
picks empty string which makes sense in most cases.

If you don't like the idea of empty string override the save method
and coerce empty string to None before calling the super classes save,
e.g.

class YourModel(models.Model):
    ...

   def save(self, *args, **kwargs):
        if self.naughty_field == '':
            self.naughty_field = None
        super(YourModel, self).save(*args, **kwargs)
