Default $100nl Squeeze with AQo

$0.5/$1 No Limit Holdem
6 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG ($210.93)
UTG+1 ($71.00)
CO ($204.55)
BTN ($56.85)
SB ($149.32)
Hero ($97.50)

Pre-flop: ($1.50, 6 players) Hero is BB A Q
1 fold, UTG+1 calls $1, CO raises to $4.50, 1 fold, SB calls $4, Hero raises to $19, UTG+1 folds, CO raises to $44.50, SB folds, Hero folds

Initial villain who raises is 19/15/2.7 over 171 hands and is your standard TAG player, call him villain A. He seems to be aware of dyanamics imo. The cold caller (let's say villain B) is 82/64/3.3 over 42 hands and based on what I have seen I have no problem whatsoever of getting it in with him if he were to spaz out here. I figure villain A can be isolating here and doesn't need to have a hand and if he thinks villain B would call, he has position, so I don't think he has to be strong. Also, given that villain B is in the hand, villain A should never think I am squeezing light here, since I should not expect villain B to fold. Given my thoughts here and read on the situation, I have two questions. A) Should I make this squeeze in the first place or should I opt to just call and see a flop? I don't want the original limper to also call and play this hand 4-handed OOP, AQo just doesn't play well in that situation. But that doesn't mean squeezing is right either. Second question: Given what I think of the situation (which may or may not be right), is it right to fold to this 4bet or do I ned to get it in? I folded, as I expected him to be pretty strong and I don't think AQo would fare well against his range here, with villain B still to act. If it is AK, I don't even post the hand, but AQ figures to be significantly weaker than AK here obviously. Thoughts here?
