Well, there is, but you really ought to validate somehow.
Like shabda says, django is expecting a python datetime object. You
can create one with your string by first grabbing the individual bits
and then using the datetime function to create one.
from datetime import datetime
year, month, day
Hmm ok, so there is no easy way to do this without using newforms?

You need to change your code to,
_dob = form_name.cleaned_data['date_attribute_name']
form.cleaned_data, gets you the canonical representation for the data
