Omaha sucks- How would you play this?

I'll be the first one to admit that my knowledge of Omaha is limited. Nonetheless, I feel that it is adequate enough to compete in small buy-in tournaments with decent expectation. A hand in one of the Battle of the Bloggers 3 events had me questioning my understanding of basic principles. Here's a screenshot of of me going busto on, what I'm thinking, was a bad beat:

So here's the situation. It folds around to the SB, who pops me in the BB. With the double suited aces, I'm not folding. I considered calling, but I decided on a re-pop based on the value of my hand and my position if he can make the call. I've read a couple of different passages that say you must push the action with aces. Considering I was double suited, and with the above-mentioned thoughts, I re-pop the pot.

And he re-pops me to about 10,000. I don't like the raise, but I can't see laying the hand for the following reasons:

1. the value of my hand (which I may be off base with)

2. the size of the pot (getting my money in and winning gives me the chip lead)

3. I'm trying to calculate his range quickly and I can't see a lot of hands that are ahead of me (part of this thought was that the chance of him being double suited with the aces as well seemed to me like the chances of AA vs. AA in hold-em- does that make sense?) I ended up ranging him on AAxx, KKxx, double-suited broadway cards...that's about it. So, looking at my equity, I concluded:

AAxx- should be ahead of most of these because of my hand being double suited
KKxx- should be crushing these hands
double suited broadway cards- worried me a bit, but guessed that I should have decent equity against these hands (also thought that he could be sharing suits with me on some of these hands)

Okay, with seven seconds, I put this together as much as I can and come over the top. The board runs out as seen in the screenshot above and I'm out. So, my questions are:

1. Did I over play this hand?
2. What are arguments for alternative decisions?
3. If, as me, you smooth called the preflop raise, what would you do on the flop? Against a check? Against a bet? Against a check-raise?

Here's the hand history if it helps with the questions:
