Dennis,

If anything, the engine should idle faster when hot. I suspect that your idle mixture is too rich, so it's running better cold and stumbling when hot. You're probably fouling plugs too. Set the idle mixture when the car is fully warmed up. It might not run quite as well when cold but you'll have fewer problems in the long run.

If you have problems setting the idle mixture, check for vacuum leaks.
