Funny, I just had the same problem! I converted the blob column to a text column and then the problem went away.
This page may be of use from the MySQL manual: http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/Case_Sensitivity_Operators.html But I couldn't get their solution to work, so I changed the format of the column to TEXT and it works fine.
