LINQ DatetimeProblem in Sharepoint

I have the following code, the commented line is the line that filters out all the rows I need, and its always returning me zero.

The PublishingDate is a date field in sharepoint, I just wonder how is the best way to fix the date issue, I guess that the date in sharepoint format is different than in the variable datetime.today

 

    var articlesqry = from row in articles
                                  where row.ItemLanguage.ToString() == (WebPart.Language == null ? DefaultLanguage : Language)
                                  && row.PromoteToFront == true
                                  //&& row.PublicationDate >= DateTime.Today
                                  orderby row.PublicationDate descending
                                  select row;
