Is it too late to point out that Gordon said precisely nothing about Trident?

He said 'independent national deterrent' or words to that effect - but he didn't identify any system or solution.

I know it's only words, but words matter - and his struck me as particularly well chosen. The speech was telegraphed as a big vote for Trident...but it wasn't really, was it?
