My analysis would be that single mothers are pretty representative of the entire dating pool, with the possible caveats that you already know that they've been in at least one majorly failed relationship (although you don't know how much of that is their fault). In general I think single non-mothers are probably less of a headache for the reasons described in the initial post. So depending on how big you think your pool of dating possibilities is, if you don't think you'll miss the removal of some (relatively small) percentage, I would say go for it.
Also depends on your age and the age of your potential partners, of course -- if you're looking at 40-50 year olds, it's possible that the ones who've never been married have some other major flaws rather than just not having gotten around to it yet, and the percentage of single mothers in that pool might be a bit larger and more relevant.
Single mothers: they're single women, but with kids. Is that a net benefit?
