sounds like your battery is taking a shit, one of those slow painful ones, it could also very well be bad/corroded cables, or a bad battery cable connection (who knows where) all VERY possible,
but i'd start with the battery

after re-reading that, ive decided i'd ask, when you jumped the starter from the poles, did you jump it with the battery currently in the car or another source?? if it was the battery in the car i supposed you can nevermind my bad battery thought
