Weak ace in a multiway pot (6-max)

How about small pocketpairs? Is open-limping a bad idea with those too? I usually raise every hand I'm going to play but with suited aces and pairs down from 88 I'm usually limping.

i don't usually play short-handed, but in a full ring game, if i'm CO-1 i'm open-raising anything that i'm going to play. that includes pocket pairs. it's more about image and metagame, plsu being about to take down pots with just a little bit of aggression.
