The power to resist in Rivendell may as much be that the elves have the capability to fight Sauron in battle, as much as it may be the ring that Elrond bore.
I think XPhial hits the hammer on the head of the nail in his post on the hobbits. Except for the bit on the Maia, there are several factors involved in that, and I wonder which Maia is referred to.
Also, their tenacity and ability to resist direct evil, demonstrated by Frodo's wounding at Weathertop and his ability to withstand a magic wound that a hardy warrior would have been quickly overcome by.
