Default TPGK facing SS push, several players still to act behind

Hero (t2145)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].

SB checks, BB checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP2 bets t595 (All-In)</font>, CO folds, Hero...?

Villian has pushed several recent hands pre-flop.

Obviously, folding is not an option since I'm nearly positive I have the short stack beat, so would you just flat call, raise to 1200, or push...?

I believe raising enough to force out any flush draws and isolate against the short stack is the correct play, and since that's more than half my stack, I should just push.

Anybody think just calling and giving everybody left to act nearly 3-to-1 odds is an ok play? If you just called, could you fold this to a re-raise...?
