Wrong.
On the issue of raising taxes, Boehner and Cantor are on the exact same page.
Cantor is not there to keep Boehner from caving. He is there because he is the GOP Majority Leader. He is the GOP Majority Leader because Boehner is fine with him being the ML. Boehner outranks Cantor. The Speaker outranks the ML. Boehner sets the policy, the others are carrying it out along with Boehner.
These are facts, not a fantasy story that your mind invented.

Well I'll be dammed. It was just a fantasy of mine that the SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE, who you say is in charge, and his leadership team got their collective rear ends handed to them during the great budget compromise. How much was that again? 350 MILLION when we needed 350 Billion, minimum. If that is leadership, get rid of him and the “Yes” men under him. HE is as much a member of the elitist Republican establishment that got us to this place as is Newt “The Poot” Gingrich and Karl “The Mastermind” Rove. So far I haven't seen Cantor cozy up the the elitists in the party. I stand by my fantasy. I'm a bitter clinger. I'm a Southern redneck. There is no dealing with me.
