The Ainur could be corrupted, the risk of sending the ring to Valinor was too great. Who knows whether the Valar had the power to resist this thing.

Edit: Exerpt from The Council of Elrond: But Gandalf has revealed to us that we cannot destroy it by any craft that we here possess, said Elrond. And they who dwell beyond the Sea would not recieve it: for good or ill it belongs to Middle-Earth; it is for us who still dwell here to deal with it.
