Dave doesn't palm mute. He strums the song, focusing on the strings fretted (so he never plays the full guitar on the song. He doesn't tocuh the b or high e at all). Also some fingers just lay there naturaly, and mutes a few strings, as well as the fingers you are are using to fret, gently lay down on the string blelow it. JKanter has a video of it on here, should show you it in the works.
Yes, I am in a box

It sounds like he gently mutes it, just enough so that everything doesn't ring out on its own... it gives technical parts like the TB verse extra "punch" and clarity because you can hear all the chords and notes individually... I do that all the time on my acoustic music, to the point I don't even notice it anymore.
