I couldn't find a thread on this, so I'll ask it here...

If Sauron had recovered the Ring and taken over Middle- Earth and enslaved the people, and assuming the some of the Elves stayed, instead of just left for the Undying Lands, could the power of the Three Elven rings been used to combat the power of the One?

I mean, its not likely because 1) Gandalf, Elrond, and Galadriel would probably leave Middle-Earth, 2) they weren't used last time Sauron was gaining power (or were they?), and 3) they are connected to the One, which could either help or hinder them, but is it possible? Could they have been used against the power of the One? If so, how come no one ever thinks of it?
