Ames, Iowa (CNN)Hillary Clinton is turning her stump speech into a near constant attack on Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders as she suddenly faces the threat of losing the first two early-voting states next month.

Two polls released Tuesday find Sanders with leads in both Iowa and New Hampshire, a surge that has Clinton aides worried.

Clinton compared her stance with Sanders on guns, health care and Wall Street. Since the first Democratic debate in October, Clinton has used different issues to knock Sanders. But on Tuesday, her speech was different, with more sustained and focused knocks on the unlikely front-runner in Iowa and New Hampshire.

Clinton hit Sanders for bragging about standing up to special interests, but siding with the National Rifle Association on certain legislation. If Sanders is to tout his willingness to stand up to special interests, Clinton said at her events that Sanders should "stand up to the most powerful special interest, stand up to that gun lobby."

Clinton then turned to Wall Street, an issue Sanders has tried to use against Clinton by casting her as too close with the nation's biggest banks. "Don't talk to me about standing up to corporate interests and big powers," Clinton said to Sanders. "I've got the scars to show for it and I am proud of every single one of them."
