Explanation:

It is this stabilization provided by the methyl group that makes o-toluic acid a stronger acid (pKa=3.91) than benzoic acid (pKa=4.19). Note: As pointed out by both @Mithoron and @GaurangTandon, this answer does not explain why p-toluic acid is a weaker acid than o-toluic acid or benzoic acid.
