She cuts when I floor it....????

Ok, I'm at a stoplight or anything similar, and I floor it from a stop. The car begins to move then it just goes right back to idle, what could this be? I was thinking a worn carb, but I wanted to get you guys' opinions before I go and replace stuff I don't need to. Thanks

Check the adjustment on your choke, or maybe try replacing the fuel filter.
