“Let’s be clear, she is our last hope,” said one board member to me, a sentiment that I also heard from another; and so, too, from a lot of execs and rank-and-file around the company. I am entirely not clear what comes after “last” — but I presume it ends with “sale.” Nonetheless, that kind of do-or-die tone was also echoed all over the place outside the company, as investors and others tried to digest the news.
