Default QJs vs an aggressive maniac

You hold QJs on the button vs a LP raise by an agressive maniac (VP$IP = 62%, RPF = 30%). This is a 30/60 and the rest of the table is solid. Is this hand playable? And if so, how do you play it?

Some thoughts...

1) You can not bluff this player, you must show him the best hand.
2) This hand has no showdown value.
3) If you don't hit the flop (about 66%) you most likely muck.
4) If you do hit your hand, you probably win a nice pot.

BTW/we dont have nearly enough info, but if the rest of the taable will respect you, and this guy will call your raise and then check it you on the flop often, im threebetting.

This kind of player is just as likely to 4 bet you and lead out on the flop.
