I have to vote Sam, although Merry came in a close second. Sam, no matter what, was always there for Frodo. He was a true friend, and was willing to risk his life for the sake of Frodo and the cause. While Merry was funny, he got serious and down to business when it came down to it. I admire and respect both hobbits, but in the end friendship till the end won me over.
