Mark,
As a general rule, I always store dates as date types (or timestamps)
rather than as string representations of dates (YYYY-MM-DD) or even as
numeric representations of dates (YYYYMMDD)... it's helpful when you
want to do date comparisons and such that your dates will already be
formatted correctly, and ColdFusion will already be able to understand
them properly.
That is, of course, just my opinion. :)

Mark, have you tried:
WHERE .... duedate=#CreateODBCDate(duedate)#
or even better...
WHERE .... duedate = <cfqueryparam type="cf_sql_date"
value=#CreateODBCDate(duedate)# />
