  Near a Mott transition, strong electron correlations may enhance Cooper
pairing. This is demonstrated in the Dynamical Mean Field Theory solution of a
twofold-orbital degenerate Hubbard model with inverted Hund's rules on-site
exchange, which favors local spin-singlet configurations. Close to the Mott
insulator, which is a local version of a valence bond insulator, a pseudogap
non-Fermi-liquid metal, a superconductor, and a normal metal appear, in
striking similarity with the physics of the cuprates. The strongly correlated
superconducting state has a larger Drude weight than the corresponding normal
state. The role of the impurity Kondo problem is underscored.
