Everybody here seems to imply that Frodo best resisted the Ring, but I believe it was Bilbo who resisted its evil best. After all, he had it MUCH longer than Frodo and yet gave it up willingly in the end to Frodo.

As for the ability to resist the Ring in the first place, it is well documented that various persons and even various races differed in their resistance. After all, the dwarves were relatively immune to the control of the 7 rings given unto them (the One Ring could have been a different story, but no dwarf ever weilded the One).
