I've been looking for new stealing opportunities, rathter than the standard wait till its folded to me in LP and raise with crap. Normally I'd limp in this situation, but who likes a push here? I assume I have pretty decent FE, I'll be giving CO 1.5-1 on a call here if its folded around to him.
Both limpers are pretty loose.

Pat-it's OK, I guess. The big risk is that BB wakes up with a hand. Definitely better pushing JT (with its lower probability of being dominated than a weak K or A). If you think there's a strong chance that you have 2 have live cards, you can do it. On the other hand, why not call, see a flop, and play some poker?

Because increasing my stack by 33% would be very nice here.
