One WC would be America chosen, the other by the judges. If they want more WCs, then each judge can choose one, whatever. Right now I don't know how they choose Wild Card, it seems to be judges choice of who comes back to compete, with no explanation of why they were chosen.
There is an article on MTV.com about how wildcards are chosen.

MTV

There is a blurb there about how wildcards are chosen.

I wanted to elaborate on why I think voting for who you want gone is a bad idea. Lets head back to season two because the fan bases were more clear cut. So all the Ruben fans want Clay gone and vice versa. So Clay fans vote off Ruben. Ruben fans get mad that their front runner is gone so they turn around and vote off Clay, Kim, etc out of spite, bitterness, whatever. That leaves us with a nice top 10 with Carmen, Julia, and Josh. (See where I am going with this?) If we vote off who we don't like, and since everyone likes different people, we may end up with a final 3 that is meh. Blah. Not the best. Because the best was voted off in the earlier rounds.

I dunno. It made more sense when someone explained it on TWoP.
