Default 5.50 QQ against a maniac, how is my line?

Villian has been on a roll. He will play any two cards and the cards have been running over him. Notice the button is almost gone. How would you play an overpair to the villian under these circumstances?

How is my line?

If he's a maniac, i think easy push flop. Vs. a tight player i might try to egg him in with a small value bet, but vs. a maniac just pooosh.
