Its probably flooded with gas, pull the injector fuse and turn the car over for a bit. (Never more then 10 seconds at a time) Then put the fuse back in and try to start it.
If that does not work then pull the fuse and the spark plugs, turn over for a bit, and then put everything back in and try to start.

If it smells like gas it probalby is flooded.
if you search for aaron cakes website he has a complete procedure on how to deflood a car that has been flooded for a while, or just flooded to hell.
also even if the starter is spinning it could be bad.
try push starting it and seeing what happens.
