Description

When importing CSV where some columns contain only space, these fields are recognized as timestamp instead of text. This is a problem with messytables detection, specifically `messytables.types.DateUtilType` class.

We created a simple [workaround](https://github.com/singularita-corp/datapusher/commit/72bd5babdab505b9b2f09d4d73472c07f94553fe) to address this issue. (I'm not sure this is ok for PR in this form)
