Default 93 Ls wont start

my 93 ls is starting to act up. i was drving it wensday and it cut off on me, then i started it back up and it was fine. it cut off again, and wouldn't start till i had gottten a jump, and on the way home it would cut off, i'd hit the brake THEN i could cut it back on...

now it wont even start with my mothers truck jumping it, if i rev the car while im starting it i comes on, but as soon as i get off the pedal it boggles down and dies...there is alot of white smoke coming out that is real strong with gas when i do start it

i thought it was the alterator,because tuesday when i was driving it everything went dim and the battery light came on, till i revved it up... but what else could be wrong?
