PROBLEM: possibly carb related plz help!

I've had the car for about a good few weeks, I know the carb needs adjusting(pretty soon i'm gonna junk it and get an edelbrock or holley) anyways, when I open it up and really get the car going it vibrates hardcore, and at low rpms(especially idle) it bogs a little...could this be a bad fuel/air mixture because the car is running too rich? I will appreciate any input from you guys, thanx!
