Yes, basically it all comes down to the nature of hobbits-- hobbits live very simple lives, they are free from the weaknesses that bring ordinary humans down: jealousy, envy, corruption-- things that make kingdoms fall (Think Númenor, the Oath of Fëanor, etc etc)-they are not issues that hobbits have to deal with. And their pureness of heart is what enables them to take on the greatest evil and defeat it, because it takes a lot longer for evil to corrupt a pure, untainted heart and soul.
