Hewlett Packard Enterprise CEO Meg Whitman has tweeted firmly that she will not be Uber CEO. She has made definitive public statements — one of which includes a nifty country music reference — that she will not be Uber CEO. Those who have spoken to her about being Uber CEO all say that the longtime Silicon Valley tech exec has repeated a Shermanesque statement that she cannot imagine any significant change or offer that would convince her to run the place.

In addition, according to sources, Whitman will also not appear at a board meeting tomorrow where two other candidates — former GE head front-runner Jeff Immelt and only one another dark-horse candidate — will present their visions for the future of Uber in the final stretch of the leadership selection process.
