Can I obtain a visa at IST? It appears there's a consulate here in Chicago, so that might be an option, although I wonder whether they'll make it difficult for Americans in general...
I think you are stuck in the airport. The State Department said no stickers are being issued at the border (this likely includes the airport) and no visas are issued at Turkish consulates in the USA.
