As a matter of fact, most of my liberal friends won't support her because they say she is not nearly liberal enough.

Hillary is a hardcore leftist and has been since the 60's. To have a snowball's chance in hell of being elected she covers her socialist core with a thin veneer of moderation. If she fools enough people (with the media's help), she'll be elected.
Kucinich's insane foreign policy aside, from a domestic policy standpoint there's probably little difference between him and Clinton (and most democrats). He's considered far left only because he's honest. Proof positive was the recent candidate quiz and how many "moderate" CGers agreed with him on most stuff.
