Did the battery die on the car and then you tried starting it? Right now your car sounds flooded, remove the ecu/egi fuse and crank it over for a while, then put it back in to start. If that doesn't help, take out and clean the plugs - and include turning over engine with egi fuse out.

If this has been happening a lot you could have a leaky injector, a vacuum leak, or as sj mentioned your engine compression may be decreasing.
