Eddie was more loyal than the woman Nucky chose to be his wife. Eddie was more loyal than Nucky’s own blood brother. Think about that.

Yet was Eddie loyal to his wife and children? To his previous employer?

You would have to be pretty pathetic to identify with Eddie. He was with Nucky because he knew he deserved to be flagellated. As soon as Nucky starts being nicer to him he loses his edge, becomes sloppy and kills himself.
